Two people lie on their backs side by side, but in opposite directions: one person's head is roughly level with the other's knee. Both lift one leg into the air – the combat leg.
On signal, they try to press or push each other's leg down. The one who manages to get their opponent's foot to the floor first wins the match.
Ensure that participants are warmed up before starting, and use mats or other soft surfaces to reduce the risk of injury.
