he/she​ ​will​ ​hold​ ​the​ ​handkerchief​ ​and​ ​he/she​ ​call​ ​the​ ​number​ ​of​ ​the
player.
3. The​ ​referee​ ​will​ ​stand​ ​in​ ​the​ ​middle​ ​of​ ​the​ ​players.​ ​He/she​ ​will​ ​call​ ​a
number​ ​and​ ​the​ ​members​ ​assigned​ ​to​ ​the​ ​called​ ​number​ ​will​ ​go​ ​to​ ​the
middle​ ​to​ ​get​ ​the​ ​handkerchief.​ ​ ​(Other​ ​members​ ​of​ ​the​ ​group​ ​may​ ​guard
