Action 2 - Command word (long barrier), players will be expected to stop and perform a long barrier before starting again.
Action 3 - Command word (swap), the players will find someone else in the area and will perform an underarm throw to them and swap balls.
Action 4 - Command word (ready), the players will get into the ready position as you would we fielding. (Wide stance hands out to catch).
