1. Two designated players work in the middle to set PICKS & ROLL furthest away from ball -If ball is TOP right/left/middle, set picks LOW AND OPPOSITE of ball -If ball is DOWN LOW, set picks HIGH AND OPPOSITE of ball 2. Girls up top, hold on to the ball UNTIL the pick and roll is completed THEN move it to the next spot 3. Monkeys make sure to reset quickly and recognize where ball is at all times 4. Girls on outside DO NOT CUT through, UNLIKE in mini-monkey where you can because there is no room with 2 girls in the middle to do this
-Girls on outside and behind can stay dynamic by exchanging places while maintaing the same balanced formation -MOVE YOUR FEET WHEN FEEDING!!! This is critical! Otherwise, defenders will knockdown or intercept the feeds -Girls in the middle: AVOID MOVING PICKS! Your feet must be completely PLANTED in order for your teammate to come off the pick, WAIT for your teammate to SET the pick, do not go early, ALL ABOUT TIMING!!! -Set the pick on the side of the defender, when coming off the pick brush shoulders with your teammate to seal off the defender
