Start in box with four cones - attack takes 3 cones, 2 defenders set up (one on ball, one split) attackers move to open cone, pass ball around in any direction; pass on outside (switch hands with body between you and the defender) defenders communicate and take turns calling ball vs. tally (`got two`); sticks up! eventually, add in another attack and defender: attack stays on cone, one defender takes ball, other two split the remaining three. Defenders` sticks should be forcing the outside pass (not allowing the skip pass) - do this by keeping stick up on inside of box
