This option can be taken when the shooters are short. We can take advantage of height from our GD and change things up a little
GK to be decisive early. GD to signal they want the drop lob by starting close in on the circle - leaving room for the drop. GK to pitch the pass just beyond reach to force movement for the GD. WD to roll around and become an option further down the court (one of two) for the third pass) C/WA to decide on being the second pass option WA to become an option for the third pass. Depending on where pass two is collected - the third pass can be longer into the goal third. When you are not involved in this play.... what are you doing to clear room for those who are?

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
