Description and Graphics

Players execute the following combinations with a periodic and controlled rotation as shown. The key point of this session is that the players pass the ball inside to the empty space in front of the running player. After receiving the ball he goes out from the space immediately. An improved level of concentration and well timed cooperation are needed from the players to perform these combinations.
