Game logic

A competitive game for two players or teams. In the middle of the board (pitch) there is an object (a rope with a marked central point) for which the players will fight. The object moves in a horizontal line (right or left) to the side of the court with more movement. For dragging an object to your side, the player scores a point. The first player to reach a certain number of points wins.
