The aim for players is to pass the ball amongst your team.
Teams score by successfully completing 5 consecutive passes without dropping / having the ball intercepted.
Attacks must make positive moves into the space and feed well ahead of the moving player.
Defence - put pressure on the attack both with and without the ball
Rules:
Ball goes to other team when:
A point is scored, the ball goes out of the area or the ball is intercepted.
Teams now score by passing to a player inside the shooting circle. However, players must complete 5 passes before being allowed to pass to a player inside the shooting circle.
If the ball is caught inside the shooting circle after 5 passes a point is scored.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
