institution. Rules The game somewhat resembles Rugby football, as players can kick the ball or run with it. Tatler quotes a pupil's description of it as "our combination of football and rugby, likened to an English bulldog playing with a ball". The Financial Times commented that the game would serve as a substitute for the Ancient Greek game of Pankration, but that a "Kasparov-like mind" was necessary to cope with the ever-changing rules. The aim of the game is to kick the ball (an overly inflated association football) into Worms - the area at either end of canvas. Unlike in Rugby football, a player need only kick the ball across the Worms line to score. The basic principle is that each team can only kick the ball once before the other team touches it (unless the kicker has been deemed to have kicked it his hardest). The main rules are called "tag", "dribble", "behind your side", and "handiwork". "Tag" occurs when a team-mate kicks the ball, and a man on his own team then kicks it without waiting for the other team to touch the ball, i.e. passing (forwards) is not allowed. "Dribble" occurs when the same man touches the ball twice when the ball has not gone backwards, i.e. dribbling as in soccer is not allowed. "Behind your side" is designed to stop people loitering up the pitch. Once a man on your team kicks the ball, the rest of the team must endeavour to get back to the point where he kicked the ball from (not just behind the kicker as in rugby) before they can move forward up the pitch. "Handiwork" is any illegal use of the hands. Only the kicks (full backs) may use their hands to control the ball. Any other man may catch the ball on the full toss, but use of the hands at any other time is deemed handiwork. A catch on the full toss by any player enables them to take up to three steps and then "bust" (punt) the ball. Breaking any of these rules means that play is brought one or two posts back for a hot (scrum). Once the ball is out of the hot, the "hotwatches" (scrum-halves) try to get the ball past the hot, either to kick the ball into Worms, or to kick the ball into Ropes (off the canvas, resulting in a hot where
