HOW TO PLAY
1

Two competitors face off inside a marked ring while onlookers gather around and clap out a rhythm.

2

Wrestlers grip each other by the arms, shoulders, or waist, trying to unbalance one another without punching or kicking.

3

A wrestler wins the bout the instant they force any part of their opponent's body besides the feet to touch the ground.

4

Common winning moves include hip throws, trips, and sudden lifts followed by a controlled takedown.

5

Matches are traditionally held during celebrations and clan gatherings, often accompanied by drumming and praise-singing for the winner.

6

Tournaments run as a knockout bracket, with the final undefeated wrestler earning the title of champion for that gathering.
