Once the ball is played from the middle square to an outer player, the player now with the ball with play a pass to the other out player in the same area. This player will then open out and receive the ball on the back foot before either picking a pass and moving out or dribbling out. One player from the middle from the same team will replace this player. Now the ball is in the middle section this act will be repeated at the opposite side.
