International Tug-of-War Day
February 19th is International Tug-of-War Day. It is a contest in which two teams pull at the opposite ends of a rope, aiming to drag each other over a central line. This activity has gained popularity among children as the perfect team-building exercise. There is also an international governing body, named Tug of War International Federation, which has gathered more than 60 member associations worldwide. It does organize world championships, both indoor and outdoor. The origins of Tug-of-war are doubtful, but the sport was practiced in Cambodia, ancient Egypt, Greece, India, and China.
