Ep11: World Chase Tag, That's A Sport?

In this episode of That's A Sport, we shine a spotlight on World Chase Tag, the first and only global league for competitive parkour tag- an exhilarating fusion of skill, strategy, and athleticism inspired by the game of cops and robbers. Drawing some of the world's best parkour athletes, the sport sees two teams battling it out in an obstacle-filled arena called The Quad in an intense game of speed and agility where athletes race against the clock with one goal in mind: Don't get caught!

We speak to one of the founding members of the sport, Christian Devaux, to discover how World Chase Tag has transformed one of the oldest games in the world into the fast-paced, high-octane viral worldwide phenomenon it is today.

That's A Sport is a monthly series where we look to explore and discover some lesser known sports from around the globe.
