- The goalkeeper taps the far post and gets into the correct position to stop the ball in the short corner.
- LO - MO - RO occupy + 1 ball
- 2 defenders, start opposite LO and MO

There are players who make only 1 or 2 passes when making a jump shot. To practice to really make 3 passes, you can do this exercise:
- Put 4 benches in a row as shown in the drawing.
- Have them take turns on the 1st bench.
- Then make 3 passes across the benches.
- Take a jump shot.
