Attacker 1 starts with the ball in the centre of the court. Defender positions themselves 3ft from the attackers with arms up. The attacker then proceeds to pass the ball to their attacking team mate on their right. Once the attacker has passed the ball the defender must step up to the attacker, blocking and opening themselves up to the ball. The Attackers aim is to clearout and drive straight to the top of the circle to recieve another pass.
- A second defender could be added to the 2nd attacker, who would then also clearout and enter the cirlce to recieve a pass also.
