Procedure
- In the left-hand square, 4 vs 2 is played for possession.
- If the team with fewer players wins the ball, it is passed into the right-hand square.
- The two grey and the two red players shift across to the right.
- There, Team Grey now tries to keep the ball within the team in a 4 vs 2.

- Winning the ball is followed by an immediate switch of play — the transition moment.
- After losing possession, the player closest to the ball goes straight into counter-pressing.
