3 teams of 2-4 players. 1 team in each end zone. Other team starts on centre line or in a central zone. Teams in 2 end zones try to pass through the middle zone to each other. Every player on a team must touch the ball at least once before it is passed across. One player in the intercepting team can enter the end zone to try to steal the ball. If Interceptors intercept, they attack the team whose pass they intercepted, trying to score by carrying over their back line. First end-zone team to pass across the middle [4] times wins. Then swap the middle team. Variation: Teams have [10]s to all touch the ball then pass across the middle.
