Konda Kondi is a
popular traditional game. It is also known as Perik Mata. The game is best played in an open area. The game is
fun to play because of its simple rules and concepts. Sharpness of a player is a benefit as this
game needs focus from the players to target a safe direction to flick the stick
in order to win the game.
Equipment:
One short stick
One long stick
Steps to play:
1. Prepare
a short and a long stick as in Image 1.1.
2. The
first player starts the game by putting a short stick across a hole. Refer to
Image 1.2.
3. Use
the long stick to flick the short stick into the air. Then, hit the short stick
again with the long stick before it hits the ground. Each player is given three
chances to hit.
4. At
the same time, the opposing team needs to catch the short stick, Image 1.3. If
they are able to catch the short stick for three rounds consecutively, they can
change sides with the home team.
5. If the opposing team fails to catch the stick,
then the home team will earn points by calculating the distance of the short
stick from the hole, Image 1.4. The distance of one long stick equals to one point.
Then, the next player from the home team continues to flick the stick.
6. The
game repeats to decide the winning team.
