Press Break Up and Back

A trapping zone press lets the first pass go to the sideline and runs two men at it. Instead of forcing the ball up the line, the trapped player throws it back to the inbounder, who has stepped in behind the trap, and he swings it to the far side the press has just left. The weak side is open, and the break goes up it with the numbers.

Also called: up and back, reverse the press, beat the sideline trap, swing it back
