Set up: 1 ball, one third space, 1 feeder in between 2 lines of players in partners.

Feeder sends ball into open court space.

Players contest for the loose ball. Player who does not receive the ball becomes the defender. Defender gets three feet and arms over the ball.

Player with the ball passes back to feeder. 

Set up: 2 lines of players in partners set up across from each other with one ball per partner.

1. Players are to pass to each other in their partners.
2. The 2 players at the far end (don’t have a ball) begin weaving in and out of players down their own side until they get to the opposite end.
3. Players who have just weaved call for a ball from the far end to get passed to them.
4. The player and the partner who are now at the far end without the ball begin to weave down themselves.

Sometimes the ball is delivered near a line. These drills can help with ball handling skills and balance.

1. In partners, one feeding one working. Worker is to stay stationary and receive passes from the feeder in an arching movement. Worker is to stretch to reach the ball and extend as far as they can.

2. Partners work along the baseline. Worker to have one foot on the line. Passer to deliver a ball outside of the court, worker to recive the ball whilst stay inside the court. 

3. Worker runs along base line and recives a pass on the go. Passer delivers the pass just outside the court. Worker to recieve the ball at a stretch and pass back to feeder.
