Good fundamental skills in partners.
Any number of player can take part, one ball between 2 and wall space.
You can get creative with rotational ideas but here are some:
1. Right hand wall taps.
2. Left hand wall taps
3. Overhead with two hands
4. Chest passes
5. Figure of 8 and 2 passes
6. Around your partner
7. Pass behind your back
Be sure to set limits i.e. time or repetition of task.
You could make it competitive 'first team to finish 20 reps'.
Strive for accuracy.
