NB It also means dribbling but as they are talking about the team as a whole, it's likely that this refers to the communication between the team members, so 'passing' the ball.

neutral  writeaway: here it's dribbling https://en.pons.com/translate/italian-english/palleggio agree with Phil. 100% confidence should really be backed by refs

  -> thanks writeaway. Although as it's referring to the team as a whole, I think passing works better. Dribbling is individual; so unless the comment is referring to each individual player, I think passing fits better.

agree  Cillie Swart: nice solution
