The two defenders (grey 1 and 2) try to prevent the players progressing up court as well as the goal shot.

2 v 2 - Fast Break:

2 attackers versus 2 defenders.

The attackers must dribble and pass the ball around the two defenders.

To begin with the defenders cannot move from the spot and the attackers must run and engage the defender (with a side-step or a dummy) before progressing towards goal.

Attacking Pairs 2 - One-Two Pass:

Players go towards the goal in pairs.

Player 1 starts with the ball and passes to player 2. After passing they then sprint to the edge of the shooting circle, looking to receive the return pass.

Player 2 then runs on, looking to draw the defender towards them. Once the defender has been drawn away from player 1 they then play the pass giving player 1 the chance to shoot unopposed on goal.
