#1 is okay. #2 should read "ended in a draw" (or a "tie"). In #3, "the" is not necessary. Tug of war is tug of war.
My correction is as follows.
1. There was a tug-of-war on the playground. The teams drew at 2-2.
2. They did a tug-of-war in the playing field. The game ended in a draw.
3. They played tug-of-war at the playground. Class 2-1 won the game at 3-2.

All seem fine except the use of "did" in sentence 2.
The verb "held" or "had" would work better there.
