Players stand around the circle. One player with a ball must dribble to someone else, lay off the ball and take their place. The new ballcarrier must now pick another player to dribble the ball to. Like Hot Potato you want to move the ball as fast as possible. Slowly add more balls to increase intensity.
Encourage players to think ahead where they will deliver the ball when it gets to them. If two players meet at a teammate, only one can pass off the ball. The other must move on and find a new teammate.
