Learning Objectives

Rondo

4 v 1 - 1 or 2 touch.

4 lines of players who play one pass and then spin to the back of their queue.

Progression:

Rather than spinning to the back of your own queue players join one of the queues to their left or right. This adds an awareness and decision making element as players must make sure there are roughly equal numbers in each queue.
