Start off with 2 balls between the teams, one for blue and one for yellows. Players on the outside are to be used to be passed to, when they recieve the ball, they have to drive off their line and into play. Swap with the person who passed it to them.
Progession - Remove ball and have blue vs yellow.
Extend the square if overload of players or getting to cramped.
Add limited amount of touches.
