HOW TO PLAY
1
Stack the 7 stones into a small tower on the ground; one team takes a turn throwing the ball from a marked distance to knock the stack down.
2
Once the stack is knocked down, that team scrambles to rebuild the tower before the opposing team hits them with the ball.
3
The opposing team, who fielded the ball, throws it to tag members of the stacking team; a player hit is out.
4
The stacking team wins the round if they finish rebuilding the tower before everyone is tagged.
5
Teams switch roles between rounds; the team with more successful rounds wins the match.
