• Directional game where players can only score via a switch of play. • Player in the middle highlighted area can go anywhere in the middle zone. • To assist the switch, players have two players in neutral zones in the middle of the pitch. These players can be marked, but can be rotated during the game to make marking difficult. • Game always starts from the goal keeper. • Defenders can drop out of the highlighted middle zone to help with the build phase. Attackers cannot follow. Passes in this zone do not count towards the total passes required to exit the middle zone. • Players must enter the middle zone and complete at least 3 passes before attempting to switch the ball via their neutral zone. • Once the ball is successfully switched, the team can go to goal.
