The rules are simple. A group of 30 kids from the same elementary school form one team and connect their legs by using specially designed ankle straps.

The goal tape is backed with a giant safety cushion so the kids can make a dive for their fastest time.

A simple and highly relatable format that will surely make your kids want to participate!
