Progression: 1) Throw the ball over the player's head 2) Throw or roll 2 balls - red player should chase and collect the furtherst one first, turn and pass, then the 2nd ball.
- Red player must look ahead, not down or back.
- Left turn with forehand, right turn with reverse, keeping ball on the stick.
- Pass only when you have fully turned to face partner.
