Reset if either player wins.

Place an object on the opposite side of the mats. We used a towel.

Start with one player in turtle and the other player with their arms locked around their partner’s waist. The defending player’s goal is to touch the towel with any part of their body at all. The attacking player’s job is to prevent their partner from touching the object. Submissions are allowed.

Reset if one player taps or if the defending player reaches the object.
