What is the World Chase Tag Tournament, Rules, and more
I’m really telling you that I never thought that something like this even existed. So, World chase Tag is an international championship for mainly parkour lovers.
Can you believe that our childhood chase game has reached the World class level, I was shocked completely!!!
The main Tagline of this game is “Keep Chasing and Don’t Get Caught”.
Basically, the game is to avoid getting caught while other team’s player is chasing and to chase the opponent team’s member before the times up that is 20 seconds.
History of World Chase Tag
It was formed in 2011 by brothers Christian and Damien Devaux, after a game of Tag between Christian and his son, Orlando, in their back garden.
The guys are set to work on designing the ultimate course dimensions & scale of obstacles in order to perfectly balance the chase between the Evader & Chaser.
Format of the Tournament
The format is simple that each team will have 5 members and 16 rounds to gain points.
Your team only gets a point of avoiding means not getting caught if your team member gets caught neither team gets any point.

Sudden Death Round:
In this round, each team chooses 1 player for chasing and the second for evading.
And the team player who tags the opponent in minimum time or the team player who manages to evade the chaser for the maximum time won that round and win that whole game.
(It happens in WCT4 finals and it was the best match of WCT I must say…)
My thoughts
I was really shocked when I first saw it and I thought that it is just our childhood “pakada-pakadi” but with a whole new level of parkour in it.
Like really never thought that this could be a thing and it’s like a sprint and parkour mixed together.
It was really fun to watch and I watched the whole WCT season 4.
