1. The blue and yellow teams play 4v4 inside the grid, maintaining possession.
2. The red team players positioned at each corner are neutral support players.
3. The team in possession can pass to any of the four corner players, who must quickly pass the ball back to the same team.
4. The defending team works to win possession and immediately transitions to attacking play, using the corner players for support.
5. The game flows continuously, with quick ball movement and positional adjustments.
6. Play in 3-5 minute rounds, then rotate roles.
