Setup
Choose teams and setup as per the diagram.
Step 1
Either [C or WA] take the throw - the player who doesn't moves right out to the other wing
Step 2
[GD+WD] start back-court, giving maximum space to goalies. Run Goalie Systems (there will be a leading goalie)

Please refer to Goalie System 1: Designated Leader, Goalie System 2: One Half Each

Goalie System 3: Out then In, Goalie System 4: Stay at Home
Step 3
If you find [GA] is up against sagging defence, goalie draws opponents towards sideline to open space for [GD+WD]
Step 4
[GD+WD] should have plenty of room to provide second and third options from back-court.
Step 5
Next pass should try to find the [GS], otherwise a feeder on the circle edge for a relatively simple third pass into the [GS]
