HOW TO PLAY
1

Two teams sit facing each other with a row of shoes lined up between them behind a blanket screen.

2

One team secretly hides a small token inside one of the shoes while the other team looks away.

3

The guessing team's chosen player points to the shoe they believe holds the token.

4

If they guess correctly, points transfer to their side; if wrong, the hiding team scores.

5

Teams take turns hiding and guessing until an agreed score is reached.
