Players to stand in a circle a few meters wide. Two players start with balls. Players with the ball are to pass to any other player in the circle. Players receiving the ball are not allowed to hold the ball, instead, they must immediately pass to another player. The balls are not allowed to leave the circle.
With the presence of two balls, players will have to be constantly aware of where both balls are so as to not let either ball past them.
The possibility of both balls colliding will increase the unpredictability of where the balls travel, therefore testing the reaction speed, communication, ball control, and pass selection skills of the players.
Three separate groups will participate at once, and the team that can keep the ball alive and within the circle will be deemed the winner, adding a motivating factor for each player to perform as well as they can.
