The class is divided into two groups, each in a quarter of the court. Each group has two lines: one in the middle (passer) and one in the corner (backdoor cutter).

Corner line: move to the cone at 45°, call for the pass, and change pace toward the basket to lose the defender.

Middle line: fake a pass at 45° to mislead the defender, then pass ahead to the teammate cutting to the basket.

The receiver has a defender. Perform the backdoor cut behind the defender. Start with passive defense, then increase intensity.
