Description and Graphics

Same colored pairs work together. Players must not leave their grid, they can only act in it. Pairs of the same color try to pass the ball to each other over the defenders' grid. Attackers have to support the opportunity for deep passes with feints, lateral passes and changing positions. Defending players have to spread in depth to close the passing directions. Load: 2-4 min.
