Jethart Hand Ba

Youths chase after the leather ball during the annual 'Fastern Eve Handba' event in Jedburgh's High Street in the Scottish Borders on March 6, 2025, in Jedburgh, Scotland. The annual event, which starts in the 1700s, takes place today and involves two teams, the Uppies (residents from the higher part of Jedburgh) and the Doonies (residents from the lower part of Jedburgh), getting the ball to either the top or bottom of the town. The ball, which is made of leather, stuffed with straw, and decorated with ribbons, is thrown into the crowd to begin the game. (Photo by Rob Gray/NurPhoto)
