3 cones pretending to two doors. In the cone in the middle of a defender back to the bottom line to donate your time there are two attackers, every one of them with a breastplate of a different color (red or green), hanging from the back of the waist.When they decide to leave hurling and defender must search for the player with the breastplate of color has been stipulated (or shouted at that moment) and go to take out the wahoo.The other player will end without opposition with the lowest number of pots possible.Note: initially none of the two attackers know who will go for the defender to steal the wahoo.

With the above structure, we add two more door up with another defender. Each defender must steal the bib to the player who is assigned to each and every one of them. The difference is that now the breastplate have placed in the waist, but ahead. We can do that the attackers are on the same team and the defenders of the other to compete for teams during several rounds.


Variants
- Do 2 computers, and one of the couple strikes in the corner and another in the inside of the doors. The ball ball in the middle, below the ring and the two players in the corners should go for it. Who controls it attacks and what it communicates to your partner that you are back in one of the doors. The player does not control the ball also communicates to warn the partner who must defend quickly.
- The defenders begin in the face to the ball for increased transfer in a situation prior to a loss of the ball and balance defensive.
