Romanian term or phrase: trasul parâmei
Dintr-un material despre Regatta Mării Negre:

"În Varna am fost primiţi foarte bine, iar în zilele în care am stat acolo am luat şi primele premii: pentru nava şcoală Mircea au fost trei trofee: locul 1 la trasul parâmei, locul 2 la fotbal cu echipa Mircea 1 şi locul 1 la fotbal cu echipa Mircea 2."

tug of war
Explanation:
E vorba despre o competitie sportiva aici. Da, intr-adevar, parâmă se traduce prin "rope", dar jocul in sine se numeste "tug of war".


Definitie "tug of war":
"1. Games A contest of strength in which two teams tug on opposite ends of a rope, each trying to pull the other across a dividing line."
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/tug of war

Poza cu "trasul la parama", se poate vedea ca e aceeasi chestie cu "tug of war"
http://www.lnr.ro/site/articol/ziua_marinei_romane_2009_la_s...

Aici gasiti exact toate denumirile sub care apare acest joc:"Copyright 2012 United States Amateur Tug of War Association • Designed by Muelver Designs
Also known as tug o' war, tug war, rope war,
rope pulling, or tugging war, tug-of-war is a sport
that directly pits two teams against each other in
a test of strength."

Și aici se poate vedea clar că ”trasul la parâmă” e un joc/competiție, despre asta e vorba în text, nu? :)

Explanation:
In Engleza Americana, "trasul paramei" se traduce "mooring line pulling/hauling" (there are no cables or ropes on the board of a sailing ship, only lines and sheets).
