The game starts when the referee says “Go”. Every player will start to walk toward the other end. When the referee says “Stop” all the player has to stop right away. They would need to pose in the same posture as the figure in the picture. If they do it correctly, they get to continue but if they pose incorrectly or move after the referee said stop, then the person has to start the game again by going back to the starting line. Whoever crosses the eighth lane first wins.
Detail
The symbol part can be separated from the lane.
