Mexico has some traditional games and activities.
In the aftermath of the 1910s Mexican Revolution, indigenous sports and physical culture practices were included in some governmental programs meant to bring the various groups of Mexico together. However, such programs mostly faded away, with a minor resurgence of them toward the turn of the 21st century. [1]
Arranca cebollitas is a game where participants form a line, with each one standing behind a fellow participant and holding that participant's waist. One opponent attempts to pull the participant at the back of the line away from the rest of the line; if successful, the opponent repeats this until they can remove all players from the line. [2]
Pelota mixteca is a game somewhat like tennis in which participants strike the ball using a hitting surface attached to their gloved hand. [5]
