| At each end of the field, each team dug a hole about 50cm wide, with a flag planted on top to serve as a goal. Each top-up match was divided into two 15-minute halves. The two teams competed fiercely to get the top into the opponent's goal. Photo: Thanh Cuong. |

| The ball is heavy, it is difficult to snatch it, but it is even more difficult to hold it and run on the sand. Photo: Thanh Cuong. |

| To prevent the opponent from "stealing" the tickle, the wrestlers must "hold" the tickle tightly. Photo: Huy Thu. |
