Both circles begin at the same time. They play 1v1 in the circle until the coach whistles. They leave the ring in the circle and skate to the circle red line stop and skate back and race to the ring passed by the coach. The players who played 1-1 against each other are now a team and they play 2-2 against the other team who comes from the other circle. From the first whistle, new players go to the circles and start playing 1-1.
Key points
Use your body to protect your ring. Work to get on the defensive side of attackers if you do not win the race for the ring.
