HOW TO PLAY
1
Two competitors face off on a grassy or matted area, gripping each other by the shoulders, arms, or a sash depending on local style.
2
Each wrestler tries to unbalance the other using trips, lifts, and throws rather than striking.
3
A fall is scored when any part of the opponent's body above the knee touches the ground.
4
Matches are typically short bursts of a minute or two, with a rest between rounds.
5
The first wrestler to score an agreed number of falls, or the one judged to have controlled the match, is declared the winner.
