Command massive, authentic tug-of-war battles with our 50m x 50mm Competition Standard Tug-of-War Rope—built to exceed many international competition specifications with superior grip, extreme durability, and professional performance. This heavyweight rope is designed for serious tug-of-war leagues, large sports clubs, major school or inter-club tournaments, big corporate team-building events, festivals, community showdowns, and high-stakes group challenges. The thick 50mm diameter delivers an exceptionally secure, powerful hold—ideal for adults, experienced teams, and older teens who want maximum leverage and intensity in large-scale pulls.
Key Features:
- Extended Competition Dimensions — Full 50 meters long × 50mm diameter — far longer and thicker than standard competition ropes (typically 33–36m × 38mm), supporting very large teams (typically 12–20+ per side) with ample pull zones and room for powerful, coordinated efforts on grass, turf, beach, or large indoor arenas.
- Premium Untreated 3-Strand Jute — High-grade natural jute twisted for outstanding softness, flexibility, and immense tensile strength. Untreated and non-toxic—provides a comfortable, splinter-free hold with no rope burns or hand irritation, even during prolonged, maximum-effort pulls. Naturally mold- and rot-resistant, engineered to withstand heavy outdoor use.
- Red Centerline Ribbon Included — Heavy-duty 50mm red seatbelt webbing securely stitched at the exact center—built to endure extreme force while clearly defining the centerline for fair, official-style matches.
- Ergonomic 50mm Grip — Thick diameter fills the hands completely for a secure, fatigue-reducing hold; soft jute texture enables powerful, sustained pulling without slippage or discomfort—perfect for high-level league fixtures or intense group competitions.
- Professional Fray-Proof Ends — Both ends resin-dipped and sealed with extra-long, heavy-duty heat-shrink sleeves—prevents unraveling and maintains integrity under the highest tension, pull after pull.
- Certified for Competition & Safety — Compliant with TWIF (Tug of War International Federation) standards for official use, plus EN71 (European Toy Safety Standard) and ASTM (American Toy Safety Standard) for safe group participation.
- Built for Extreme Use — Handles massive pulling forces—trusted for repeated league matches, major tournaments, large corporate events, and festival-scale challenges.
How to Play Tug-of-War – Standard Competition Rules:
- Mark a clear centerline on the ground (cones, chalk, or tape).
- Position the red ribbon precisely over the centerline.
- Divide into two equal teams (typically 12–20+ per side for this extended length).
- Grip underarm only—no wrapping around hands, wrists, or body (critical safety rule).
- On the start signal, pull straight back—the first team to drag the opposing team’s anchor person across the centerline wins the pull. Best of three pulls decides the match!
Perfect For:
- Tug-of-war leagues and dedicated clubs with large fixtures
- Major school or inter-school tournaments and sports carnivals
- Large-scale corporate team-building and leadership programs
- Sports clubs, rugby unions, fire brigades, and community organizations
- Beach festivals, park fundraisers, outdoor mega-challenges, and big group events
- Supervised adult/older teen Scout, Guide, or adventure activities
Important Notes:
- Recommended for Adults & Experienced Teams — The 50mm thickness provides maximum grip and challenge—best suited for adults and older teens with proper supervision for mixed groups.
- Pickup Only – No Standard Shipping — Due to its substantial 50m length and heavy weight, this rope is available for pickup only from our Auckland location. For shipping quotes or special arrangements, please contact us at [email protected]—we’ll provide accurate options based on your needs.
