Haytay

Haytay is a sport played in D'Runia, particularly Chaska.

The basic rules for the game are as follows:

• The ball is never thrown; instead, it is kicked and must be caught. The ball can be bumped like a volleyball from player to player, but once it is caught, everyone stops moving until it is airborne again.
• The players score points by the catching of the ball (one point), or by one's own "goalie" catching it (ten points).
• The playing field has two "goals" between pairs of posts.
• Weapons are not allowed.

Typically the games were played in historic times between auqarkuna, that is, year-based regiments. It was believed that the speed and strength of the youth would be matched by the experience and cunning of the elder.
