Execution:
  • Play freely on one or two baskets, depending on the number of players.
  • No dribbling allowed, only passing.
Execution
  • Start with three players on the baseline, with the middle player holding a ball.
  • The middle player passes the ball to one of the other players and runs after the ball.
  • The receiver passes the ball to the player on the other side and also follows the ball.
  • This pattern is repeated as the players move towards the basket on the other side of the court.
  • When a player is close enough to the basket, they make a lay-up.
  • The lay-up shooter becomes a defender, while the other two players become attackers.
  • The attackers try to reach each other with a long pass and score.
  • The defender tries to prevent the attackers from scoring.
  • If the attackers do not score, they must do five push-ups.
  • Up to 8 players in the center circle or freethrow circle.
  • On starting the game, each player has to protect the ball whilst attempting to knock the ball away from other players.
