This game was invented by Nithin Mohandas in the year 1986. It is played in the northern parts, especially in [[Kannur]]. This game requires a considerable amount of physical exercise and is mainly played by boys. This game is also known as ''chattiyeru'' and ''chilleru'' in other parts of [[Kannur]]. Dappa Kali is a different form of the game ''Lathi kali'' played mainly in [[Kasargod district]]. This game is played between two teams. It consists of 10 marble slabs stacked above each other. One team targets this pile and once they strike it then their next aim is to keep it back while the other team has to block the opposing side from arranging it back. The defending team can make the other team out by throwing at them with the ball in any part of body except the head and below the knees.<br />
