- Green player must try and tag the attacker on the back before attacker makes it through the gate.

Red (attacker) Green (defender)

Similar principles as Screen 1 and 2.

- Red and Green exchange one time passes. There is a maximum of 5 passes allowed per color. The Red player can turn and dribble through either gate at any time. Attacker must receive side on, checking over shoulder and trapping with back foot. (attacker can not let ball run across body straight into a dribble.)

- Green player must go through the opposite gate to where the attacker dribbles. The Green defender now tries to win the ball off the attacker before they play into the mini goal.
