STEP 1

The initial setup consists of two rows of players with the ball on one side of the field (left or right, not midfield). There will be a player without the ball at the elbow of the free throw from a hoop. In the midfield where the free kick player is, the first player in line will not have the ball. Finally, there will be 4 cones at the height of both free throws placed as follows.

STEP 3

The player who receives the ball always makes the diagonal (from now on with the ball) until passing it to the player who had just circled the cone after making the diagonal. Once he has passed it to him, he circles said cone and heads towards the opposing basket to receive from his teammate who makes the diagonal and finish. The player who passes from the line always goes to receive towards the other field.
