DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES? Parkour is a sport of skill and creativity. It’s about using your body in ways we once thought were reserved for cats and monkeys. It’s a sport that combines physical agility, speed, strength, endurance, and coordination, with the mental acuity to do it differently than everyone before you.
This is a FUN Parkour competition for beginners and is open to all athletes ages 6 and up.

SPEED: The athlete moves from point A to point B in a timed race through a designed course of gates and touchpoints. Parkour athletes use their skill, agility, and confidence to move through the course as fast as possible.
FREESTYLE: Athletes will have 90 seconds to show any flip or trick of the top athletes’ best skills and combinations. Skills can range from rolls and cartwheels to flips with full twists off of equipment or your best websters and Arabians. Your own limitation is your own imagination. Athletes are judged on flow, versatility, difficulty, and execution. Athletes will be given 15 minutes prior to their event to create their “flow line.”
TAG: Competitors are randomly split into heats of 4 within their given division; athlete order is randomized. Heats will run 16 chases each lasting 20 seconds with 10 second reset time.
If an evasion is successful, the evader earns a point and remains on the course to be chased by the next tagger. If a tag occurs, no points are awarded. The tagger becomes the evader to be chased by the next tagger. The winner is the evader with the most points. If there is anything larger than a 2-way tie, then a new heat is created. Any tie of two athletes in a heat will result in a sudden death tiebreaker. A successful evasion wins the tiebreaker.
