- 1 of the 2 passes the ball and the other catches it.
- Possible extension by throwing harder and harder or playing in 3x over the net.
- One player stands in the middle of the field,
- three/four players stand around it.
- These players must get the ball to the one player, making it as difficult as possible.
- Important technique is underhand/overhand and I-call.

- Pay attention to a tight hand, stepping out, straight back and throwing up the ball.
- One player at the net, the other on the 7-metre line.
- The one at the net throws a short ball on the 3-meter line, then on the 7-meter line and so on.
