set out 4 5 by 5 metre squares with cones with a 5 m space between the squares.
Players in pairs with 1 ball between them.
players all start by passing the ball 2 touch across the square. (1 stop 2 pass)
The competition.
The 2 players on court 1 have to successfully pass the ball 2 touch across the square 5 times , everytime they make a mistake they start to count again at 1.
When they achieve 5 they can move to court 2 and the players on court 2 move down to court 1.
On court 2 for the players to move up to the next court they have to pass the ball 10X successfully across.
on court 3 players have to pass 15x and on the top court the players have to try and get the highest passing series without a mistake.
If 2 or 3 courts all achieve their target scores at the same time they all move up and the pair on the highest court drop down to court on in on move.
