4 players stand as posts in a square as set out in video. Approximatly half way down 1/3 and near halfway.

2 other players, the workers, start on the baseline with the balls, one each. 

Workers pass ball out to first posts on a diagonal and follow the pass to recieve a short pass from first post.

Workers then pass straight on to the second posts and follow the pass. 

Second post players toss a high ball for the workers to catch. Workers stay put and the second post players run down court to recieve a long pass to the point of the first posts.
