The players are split into two groups of equal numbers. One group is chosen to be the rabbits. The others have to remain within an area which has been marked out. The rabbits take turns to hop into the marked area and try to touch as many of the other team members as they can. Players are out if they are touched or if they cross the boundary. Likewise, the rabbit is out if he puts two legs down or changes legs. However, if he is tired, he can hop back to the start line where he can nominate another rabbit to take his place. The game is over when the other team has no players left in the marked area.
