Buzkashi
Literally translated, it means "goat grabbing." As for how it's played, well, imagine polo but with one slight modification. Both sports involve two opposing teams competing on horseback with the aim of maneuvering an object into the scoring area. The only difference is that in Buzkashi you use the carcass of a goat or calf instead of a ball. These days, a calf is used more often than a goat as the carcass of a calf is more durable. This is a fiercely competitive sport and definitely not for the faint of heart. For a chance to win, both the player and the horse must undergo long and strenuous training. The Afghan Olympic Federation has implemented official rules for Buzkashi, the national sport of Afghanistan.
