Muskox Fight
In the Muskox Fight, the competitors imitate an animal that is important in the traditional way of life. This game is one example of many showing how games were connected to the traditional way of life on the land. This is a fun game, but it can be a great competition. The two opponents kneel on the floor, supporting themselves on their knees and hands, using the flexed feet for added support. Knees and hips are bent to 90 degrees, the arms fully stretched out. In this position, they make contact at the shoulders, and tuck the head under. On a signal, they attempt to push each other past a target line or out of a circle. No jerking or sideways movements are allowed.
