Setup
Trios form a triangle with 2m sides and need 2 balls held by (A & C).
Step 1
The pattern is to move 2 balls around the triangle in clockwise direction. Each players involvement is:-

1-2-3 passing movement with the player to their left

1-2-3 passing movement with the player to their right

Sit idle while other 2 players perform 1-2-3
Step 2
(A) starts with the ball and performs a 1-2-3 passing movement with (B) to their left

'1-2-3' is (A to B), (B to A), (A to B)
Step 3
(A) receives the 2nd ball in another 1-2-3 passing movement with (C) to their right

'1-2-3' is (C to A), (A to C), (C to A)

(A) finishes holding a ball and becomes idle for the next movement
Step 4
Now (B) is involved in the next 6 passes

(B) starts the 1-2-3 to (C)

(B) receives and finishes holding ball after 1-2-3 with (A)
Step 5
Now (C) is involved in the next 6 passes

(C) starts the 1-2-3 to (A)

(C) receives and finishes holding ball after 1-2-3 with (B)
Step 6
Progress by moving the cones out 1-2m per 30-45 seconds.
