Setup
All players line up behind (A), except for 2 defenders. Defender (C) takes a front defensive stance in front of (A), defender (D) stands at (4).
Step 1
There are two major skills for (A) to practice - a roll around at (2), and lead and dodge manoeuvre towards the open side
Step 2
Coach or player (B) has the ball. (C) is covering the short pass, so (A) signals for a lob by pointing
Step 3
(A) performs a roll around (C), then jumps to catch (B)'s lob pass near (3)

Keep the cone at (3) a safe distance from the landing point - this cone can quickly be removed once players are familiar where they receive

Use good footwork - in particular, wide landing feet for balance and to make the return pass easier

Once (A) catches, this signals that (D) can become active. (D) runs in to defend (A).
Step 4
(A) passes back to (B), then starts their next movement. Use preliminary moves to get past defender (D) and receive from (B) on the opposite (left) side of the court, ideally with a dodge towards the centre

Initially for the first few turns, (D) just blocks, intercepting isn't allowed.
Step 5
(A) passes back to (B) and rejoins (A) to complete their turn. Once court is clear and defenders have reset, next (A) begins their turn.

Rotate defenders as required.
Step 6
Progression for added difficulty: Defender (D) is allowed to intercept.
