Sport Description
The position taken by these three boys will be as follows.
First (out of three) boy will stand by facing the direction of running. Second boy will stand behind the first boy and will place his hands on the shoulders of the first boy. Second boy should keep the tight grip of his hands on the shoulder so that they should not slip (nor move) away from the shoulders of the first boy.
The first boy will now take his hands backside near his hips and engage both the hands with each other (hands interlocking position) so as to make small platform for the feet of the third boy to rest on it.
Now third boy will come and by keeping his feet on those hands (of first boy) third boy will climb up. During climbing he has to take position in such a way that his body should be in between the space of the both hands of second boy.
Now third boy should take the support of both the hands of second boy and keep standing there. Means feet of the third boy will be supported by hands of the first boy and his (third boy) additional weight will be supported by two hands of the second boy. In this way one team will be formed out of three persons.

The race will start from one line from where all the teams will stand at start position. All the teams will start simultaneously immediately after getting signal. There is also one alternative in case of non availability of bigger ground. In such condition a path will be fixed and one by one each team will run on this path.
The timing of each team to cover the distance of this path will be noted. The team which will cover the distance/path with minimum time will be a winner. The team which will reach first will be a winner.
