This is transitional game which can be adjusted to work on multiple things such as breaking the lines or press and cover as examples. Two teams on the outside and one in the middle. One outside team given a ball and two players from the middle team go in to press the ball, if they win the ball either in a time frame or before a number of passes are completed then the team that lost the ball go in the middle, if they don’t win the ball that team stay in the middle.
