A game for grabbing a playing marker before an opponent does to score a
point. The game includes a playing mat with a pair of end edges and a pair
of side edges. The playing mat also has a center point and a pair of base
lines extending between the side edges of the playing mat. The center
point is interposed between the base lines. Each of the base lines defines
a base region extending from the respective base line and an adjacent
associated end edge of the playing mat resting the playing mat. A marker
piece is positioned on the center point of the playing mat. A first player
places a hand on the playing mat in a first of the base regions and a
second player places a hand on the playing mat in a second of the base
regions. After a start command is issued the first and second players grab
for the marker piece with the player grabbing the marker piece scoring a
point.
