The purpose of the game is to kick a specially¹ constructed, usually home-made shuttlecock into the air and keep it there for as long as possible solely² by the use of the feet. This is normally accomplished³ by administering repeated kicks with the instep of either foot.

游戏的目的是踢一个专门构造，通常自制毽子踢入空中，并保持在那里，仅通过使用脚踢。这通常是通过与任一只脚的脚背重复踢来完成。

If more than one participant, players form a circle and kick the shuttlecock to each other. A player who misses and lets it fall to the ground has to drop out of the game. This process of elimination⁴ is repeated, until the player who remains⁵ at the end is declared the winner.

如果有多个参与者，参与者围成一圈，并踢毽子给对方。让毽子掉在地上的那个人要放弃比赛。淘汰的过程是重复的，直到最后把毽子保持空中的玩家被宣布为胜利者。
