Coaching Points
- Catch, set, release in one smooth motion — no fumbling or re-gripping
- Maintain consistent spacing around the circle — do not drift closer on each pass
- Eyes up to the next receiver before the ball leaves your hand
- Build rhythm first clockwise, then challenge the team counter-clockwise
- Center player keeps low and ready — tracking all passes develops awareness
