Faroese Ólavsøka Rope Tug

Split into two evenly matched teams and grip the rope on either side of the center line.

On the signal, both teams pull steadily backward, digging in their heels.

The goal is to pull the opposing team's nearest player across the center line.

Teams may reset their grip between bursts of pulling but must keep the rope taut.

The first team to pull the marker fully across their side wins the match.
