Strength contest for two teams (3,2,3)

I believe the answer is:

tug of war

(Other definitions for tug of war that I've seen before include "Struggle (between Greeks?)" , "Pulling contest" , "Event involving two teams and a rope" , "Traditional field contest" , "Physical contest with rope-pulling teams" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
