2. “Good artist copy, Great artist steal”-Picaso I
was inspired by his quotation so I tried to
innovate one of the most popular street
games in the Philippines the “tumbang

that played many years here in the Philippines
and until now even though our generation
change some of our greatest games are alive
and still kicking.
7. 1. The players can retrieve their Plate and not be tagged only if
the can has fallen.
2. If the cup is upright, you are only safe when you reach the
line. While in between the can and the line, the IT can tag you to
be the new IT.
3. If a player hits the can and throws it out of the circle but fails
to knock it down, he automatically becomes the new it.
4. If the plate falls inside the circle - regardless of whether the
cup is upright or down, the IT can stamp it with the can and the
owner becomes the new IT.
5. You can throw only from the line and not beyond it (nearer the
can.
8. From the line, hit the cup with your Plate and
make it lie on its side (tumba means to fall)
and retrieve your cup without getting tagged
by the IT
9. You shall not hit the IT (sometimes we do
deliberately!)
Hitting the can cup be done one at a time or
simultaneously.
10. The players line up in the mark line and
throws their plate forward as if hitting the
cup . Whoever throws the shortest is the IT.
11.
12. Because you are interacting with other
teammate and the tremendous exercise that
you gain. not to mention the safety of the
game its for all ages. I wish you try this with
your friends.
