Setup
The shooting cone (1) starts 2m out...but change this at your discretion. Just don't make the it too difficult or it will be a long game. (A & B) start with a ball each.
Step 1
The rules of this drill: Each player takes a shot from (1). If they MISS and the player behind them makes a shot before they do, they are OUT.
Step 2
(A) takes a shot from (1). If they make the first shot, they are safe.

Fetch the ball and pass to (C)
Step 3
If however (A) misses, they fetch quickly to try again. Meanwhile next in line (B) has an opportunity to knock them out.

If (B) makes the shot, (A) is OUT. (A) passes their ball to (C). Pause play until (B & C) are in position before restarting.
Step 4
If (A & B) both miss, both keep fetching their ball and having another shot back at the cone (1).

If (A) makes it first, they're safe and return to the back of the line

If (B) makes the shot first, (A) is OUT. (A) passes their ball to (C). Pause play until (B & C) are in position before restarting.
Step 5
The winner is the last player standing. If the contest drags on too long, make the shot harder by moving cone (1) out.
