MEMORIES FROM THE SOPHOMORE DIARY

We hone team spirit from this game. It mentors our leadership and decision-making skills. It’s a bliss to play this game as it invigorates you neatly. The sport I am trying to highlight here is “ pithoo ”, an Indian traditional game. Many might have played this game, a few others would have heard it and for some, this still may be a new word. I have spent a great deal of time playing, enjoying and loving this game.  Pithoo is a conventional Indian game and can be identified by many more terms from different parts of the country. They are:  Pithoo (Haryana),  satoliya(Rajasthan),  Satodiya(Gujarat), Lingorchya(Maharashtra),  Dabba kale(Kerala),  Ezhu kallu(Tamil Nadu) and widely known as Saat Patthar.  I used to play pithoo during my good old school days and kept missing it after I left school. In my sophomore year, I happened to play this game with my classmates on a short notice, when suddenly our class was cancelled. We immensely enjoyed and had fun playing for 2 hour
