Pass to Score

Same sized fields with 2 players on each side of the field (they are not allowed to cross the half way line).

Width and height of field dependent on skill of passing and receiving technique of players.

Aim of the game is to 'pass'/shoot the ball over the baseline of the opposition who tries to trap the ball before.
