Two separate grids will each have an attacking/defending group of players. A's are numbers up, attacking towards their respective goals (purpose is to score). Once assigned to a grid, A's and D's cannot cross the center line that separates the two grids- although teammates can pass/work with each other in different grids. If D intercepts the ball, they attempt to transition ball to their attacking grid to score. Play is continuous- if one team scores, start the ball in that grid with the D outletting the ball to their attacking grid.
