Set Up:

Four passing lines are set up in a diamond shape. Two balls are running at the same time.

After passing, the players run to the line to their left, circulating clockwise around the field.

2.  Use a second touch if neccesary to get the ball under control.

3.  Use the correct weight on each pass, based on how fast the ball is moving.
