Setup
Split into 3 lines behind (A, B & C). Use the entire length of the court. Give each (A) in line a ball.
Step 1
(A) starts by passing to either (B / C) who start on the circle edge. One of them makes a lead and dodge ahead of (A) and receives centrally

(A) shouldn't always pass to the same player - mix it up!
Step 2
Assuming (A) passed to (B) then:-

(A) runs towards left wing to replace (B)

(B) passes to (C) who dodges centrally from the right wing, then crosses to the opposite (left) wing.

(C) passes to (A) who dodges centrally from the left wing, then crosses to the right wing.
Step 3
This pattern is repeated, with (A) then (B) then (C) making a lead and dodge to receive, in that order

Players cross to opposite side each pass, so each consecutive run will be from the opposite wing
Step 4
Signal the second group to commence once there is enough space between trios.
Step 5
Work back up-court once everyone has completed the lap.
