If this game is played with more than 2 teams, one side of the court will be designated the winners side and the other the contenders side. In the case of only two teams, the 'trainer' will alternate directing movements from one team to the other. In the case of a game involving 3 or more teams the team on the winners side will received a free ball after moving 3 times as instructed by the 'trainer' and play out the rally. If they win the rally they get a point, and stay on the winner's side. If they loose the rally they move back to the challenger's side as the team winning the rally moves through to replace them. As soon as a team gets more than 3 points they then move as many times as they have points. Games would normally be to 7 points.

Coach emphasis: Keep modified game reps game-like and technically clean.
