  • (A) disposes to anyone except:-
    the player who has the second football
  • Immediately after (A) disposes, (B) feeds their ball into (A)
  • (A) disposes to anyone except:-
    the player they received it from
    the player who has the second football
  • After (A) disposes, second ball fed to (A)
  • After 60 seconds, rotate (A) and restart
    Players can move from being a handball to kicking target or vice versa, as long as there are mixed skills required.
