DESCRIPTION

Players get into partners and then everyone lines up on the baseline. One player is the attacker and one is the defender. The defender needs to try and stay in line with the attacker while the attacker is trying to break away from the defender by going from side to side. Players swap roles after 15 seconds and then the next pair go
