3.) Each player in the defending team has two turns at entering the area and attempting to win possession from the passers

4.) If the defending player manages to force a mistake or win possession, then they break out of the 10x10 grid and receive a pass from the coach in order to shoot on goal

5.) If the passing team manage 7-10 consecutive passes, then the defender is replaced

6.) The passing team scores a point for each set of 7-10 consecutive passes

7.) The defending team scores a point for each goal scored from a pass from the coach
