Hi Elvis,

Here is a simple tutorial on how to pass the ball to another player (it's made in our netball animator programme but it works exactly the same as the football animator).

At present there is no "rebound" option on the animator so if you want a player to literally pass the ball to a wall, and have it rebound back to them you must follow the steps in the video below.

We will be launching a web based version of the animator soon. We hope this will make it easier to create animated practices to use in your own plans - we will keep you posted via the blog.

Any other questions please let us know.
