∙ 10y agoIn each of the 12 districts of Panem the name of every kid ages 12-18 is put into a bowl. The name of 12-year-olds is put in once, 13 twice, and so on. Also, each kid has the option of signing up for tesserae and putting their name in another time to get food for their family.
Out of this bowl, the name of one girl and one boy from each district is chosen. These kids will participate in the Hunger Games.

∙ 10y agoThe reaping system from The Hunger Games is used to choose one boy and one girl from each district to participate in the Hunger Games.
A person becomes eligible to be reaped at age twelve, when their name is put into the draw once, and they continue to have their name added one more time until age eighteen, their final year of eligibilty (ex: name put in once at twelve, twice at thirteen, three times at fourteen, etc.). A person's name may be put in additional times if they apply for the tesserae, which gives a portion of supplies for each extra time their name is entered.
Names are chosen randomly from two large, glass balls. They are written on slips of paper and drawn out by a Capitol worker (such as Effie Trinket).
