HOW TO PLAY Players were divided into two teams. One member from each team was chosen to carry a large ball of clay which was to serve as his team's ammunition. As the players received their ammunition, they would roll small clay balls and stick them on the tip of their sticks. The young boys would pretend to be warriors, sneaking about in the bushes trying to avoid the sharp blows of their opponent's clay balls. The stick was usually held in the right hand and was pulled back and sharply released by the left hand.
Players whack one another until they give up and sit down.
Those who remain standing knead the shoulders or kick the behinds of those sitting down. Endurance and the ability to bear pain without complaint are the method of receiving points in this game.
