Jail Game Progression #2

A line of players behind a cone with balls. Another line of players next to them without balls. A 3rd line again next to them on the far side without balls. The line in the middle is the striker. Play commences as this striker runs between the 2 defenders and checks to the ball. Defenders must allow the striker to receive and now play begins. The 3 players attack the defenders based on where the passer moves. If the passer overlaps then the player not involved must prepare for a set pass in order to give support to the striker. If the passer prepares with an agle for a set then the 3rd player can split wide and up attempting to draw the attention of the defender and create a 2 vs 1.

Details:

Striker must check his inside shoulder after the check off, fix his shape and receive on the half turn. Now it's time to read and react to what the defense does.
