Split players into groups of 8, with 1 ball. Players now work in the circle. Movement is the same, with ball being passed to shooter on forward lead and then they pass it to the other shooter leading towards the post. They get one shot only and pass the ball out lead forward for the next pass, to pass to the shooter at the post. Each shooter will get the ball under the post 3 time, so 6 movements in total and then players swap with the GS/GA at the front of the line. F goes to back of GS line. GS goes to back of GA line. GA goes to back of F line. Work until the first 2 are back in the circle together.
Make sure players are working hard. Shooter only gets 1 attempt at goal before passing ball back to feeder.

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.
