The coach dumps the puck and Team 1 (X1/X2) and Team 2 (O1/O2) race for defensive possession. Before a shot can be taken a team must pass to the coach which puts them into offensive mode. Upon the pass to the coach, the team that made the pass gets open for a return pass and upon reception should make plays with their teammate to generate scoring opportunities. Every time the puck changes possession a pass to the coach must be made.
