Langdi[a] is a traditional South Asian field sport which combines elements of tag and hopscotch.

The teams alternate chasing (attacking) and defending roles in each of the 4 innings of the game, with the chasing team's players restricted to hopping around on one foot, and attempting to score points by tagging as many defenders as possible within the 9 minutes of each inning.
