     • A chess pass is when a player brings the ball to his chest and extends his arms pushing the ball out to his team mate. These are quick and convenient passes use to accurately pass the ball. Stepping into the pass helps with the speed and distance of the pass.
   • Overhead Pass
     • When a player lifts the ball above his head and directs it to his team mate it is known as an overhead pass. Players commonly use these if the defender is shorter then they are or they're trying to make a pass to a tall team mate. If you give a tall team mate a pass too low there may be a problem when he goes to receive the pass.
   • Receiving
     • Upon receiving the ball a player must choose to dribble, shoot, or pass again. You can stop with the ball to gain control before dribbling again or you can catch the ball and immediately send it away. The most common technique used is triple threat which is bringing the ball down to the side of your hip.
