Their partner controls the ball using their chest or thighs, brings the ball down to their feet and passes the ball back to their partner

After a few minutes, partners trade roles

Coaching points:

  • Move to the ball
  • Body behind the ball

  • Start with an open body position ready to receive the ball
  • Relax and cushion the ball
