What is "I was passed a ball" mean?

I'm reading a story here(https://www.wattpad.com/538178092-total-drama-island-dodgebrawl/page/2)

Just when I thought I would die, Courtney yelled at me to get onto the court. I didn't want to hear her yell any longer than she already was so I didn't bother arguing. Making my way onto the court I was passed a ball by DJ.

I have no idea what it means...


Thank you

They are playing dodgeball. DJ threw a ball to her, probably on the bounce, but that throw was not part of play. He just provided her with the ball.
