Abstract

Lagori is a team sport played in India. It is played with fervor and lot of excitement by the youth. It is a simple game that gives maximum excitement. It’s almost akin to avoiding bullets in a firing range where one twists and turns to the hit.

The game is generally played in a huge ground that has a capacity of lot of running and also noise. Lagori is a noisy sport in a scene that the players make a lot of noise by calling out or shouting out instructions to their teammates. It’s almost nosier than a group of chuckling hens in a cage.

In Lagori two teams share a ground (no limit) and one of the team's members throw ball at a pile of stone and disassemble them. Now the opponent should hit as many as possible other team members with the ball while they try to arrange stone pile back.

If the ball touches the member he is out and team should continue without him. But a team member can always safeguard himself by touching the opposite team member before ball hits him.
