20s

Per Chase

One chaser. One evader. Pure adrenaline, zero downtime.

The Fastest Team Sport
on the Planet

Two teams of up to 6 athletes face off inside The Quad™, a 12m × 12m arena filled with obstacles. Each match is best of 16 chases. Strategy meets raw athleticism.

If the evader survives 20 seconds without being tagged, their team scores. If a match is tied, it goes to Sudden Death Chase-Off™. Each team picks their best chaser and best evader for one final chase each.

The Quad™

A proprietary 12m × 12m arena filled with obstacles. Step out of bounds and you lose the chase. The confined space creates explosive, high-speed chases.

46 Quad™ arenas in 18 countries

Team Strategy

The winning evader stays on, building momentum and pressure. 25 seconds rest between chases.

Winner stays on

Sudden Death

Tied match? Each team picks their best chaser and best evader for one final chase each.

The Founders

Christian & Damien Devaux

Turning the oldest game into the newest sport since 2011

World Chase Tag® was formed by Christian Devaux in 2012 after a game of tag with his son in their back garden. Joined by his brother Damien, they went from organising casual meet-ups in Hyde Park (London) to hosting international competitions featuring some of the world's best athletes.

In 2020, they teamed up with Tupelo Honey CEO Cary Glotzer, who, together with Gray TV, became equity partners. WCT events now span three tiers: National Championships, Continental Championships, and World Championships with the upcoming WCT7 set for June 6–7, 2026 in Évry-Courcouronnes, France.
