If two numbers are called, then its a triple team The offensive player whose man runs for the double turns and cuts towards the goal for a pass The offensive players closest to the double move towards the ball circling for assistance The offensive player who gets doubled looks up for the cutting player or the adjacent player who is providing him assistance and makes a pass Note: We may want to have 1 or 2 coaches play defense and provide the double, to kick start the action.
