Transitional Rondo

20x40 area (size depending on player #s)

Players split into 3 teams. Ball is played into one team who attempts to play 5-10 passes before playing the ball through the middle grid into the far grid. The team in the middle sends 1 defender into the area while the team is attempting to pass. The remaining players in the middle can't leave their zone but can block a pass being played through. When the ball is turned over or goes out of bounds the ball is played to the opposite team. The middle team stays in the middle for time (2-5mins). Points are awarded when the ball is played from one side of the grid to the other. 

Variations - change size of area, # of players, # of defenders
