ATYA-PATYA IN ONE LINE
Atya-patya is a traditional Indian line-tag game played on a narrow grid court. Attackers attempt to cross nine transverse trenches while defenders restricted to specific lines attempt to tag them.
KABADDI IN ONE LINE
A raider crosses into the opponents' half, tags as many defenders as possible and returns — while the defenders try to hold them down. No ball, no equipment: just breath, speed and grip.
