The feeder can pass the ball anywhere. The worker must move at speed to retrieve the ball and return it to the feeder.
Work like this for 10 passes and then swap player roles.
Feeder should use a variety of passes to keep the worker on their toes - shoulder / bounce / chest pass.
The worker should aim to make their pass on the move.
To get both players moving at once they each have a ball. Simultaneously, both players put the ball into the working space of their partner, then immediately retrieve the other ball, before releasing this ball into the working space.
This is continuous.

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.
