Setup
Pick two evenly matched teams, give one centre pass honours. Up to 7 v 7 start on the court, however you can use as few as 5 v 5 - in which case limit playing zone to 2/3 of the court.
Step 1
Attacking team must work the ball down-court with passing, however the following differences to normal rules apply:-

Players can run anywhere with the court (including goal circles)

Players - except (C) - can only receive one pass

(C) restarts with throw-in from baseline (or defensive transverse line if 5 v 5).
Step 2
After any player - except (C) - passes, they must stop in their tracks and take no further part, as does their defender.

Create some system (like a hand in the air) to make it clear who has already been used.

(C) remains active throughout and can pass unlimited times.
Step 3
Attack will need to be quite direct, or the attacking team risk become stranded with nobody left to pass to.
Step 4
Attackers have 2 turns (down-court, then back up-court), restarting from baseline (12+ players) or defensive transverse line (10). Then swap attacking and defending team and sub-on players if necessary. Optionally rotate the (C).

If a turnover occurs, the turn ends; restart from opposite end.

Optionally keep score by calling out after each goal.
