Set-up tips from coach Donnie!

  • The players start by throwing the ball over.
  • After throwing the ball, each player walks around the pawn to the other side.
  • One of the players then determines how the game is played and how the players move around the pawn.
  • The other players imitate this player.

along-playing-walking-around-pawn

  • A and B are facing each other and both have a ball.
  • One of these two balls they use to pass overhead.
  • The other ball they throw straight back and forth at the same time.
  • At the moment A plays one ball overhand, B throws the other ball towards A and vice versa.
    • You can also do this in a triangle.
