HOW TO PLAY
1

Two players hold the elastic band taut between them at ankle height while the rest take turns crossing over or through it.

2

Jumpers must clear the band without touching it, using footwork, ducking, or stepping moves.

3

After everyone has had a turn, the holders raise the band slightly higher for the next round.

4

Anyone who touches or knocks the band down is eliminated from further rounds.

5

The band keeps rising each round until only one jumper remains able to clear it, winning the game.
