How it works

All balls start with the Passer, the passer feeds the ball into the box where the attacker must take it on the half turn, the passer calls left or right before they make the pass, the attacker then finishers with the second touch while being charged down by the passer, they then quickly return to the box to receive the next pass, the attacker should control with one foot and strike with the other
