Gollachhut
Gollachhut is a two-team running game: one team's players set off from a central post (the golla) and try to reach a far-off point, while the other team tries to touch them.
Era: 90s & 2000s
What it was like
The running team hold hands in a chain from the post, then break away one by one when they see a gap. Get touched and you're out.
A big field, lots of players and plenty of shouting: a familiar sight on a village afternoon.
