The Game of Chase

Kho Kho

The game

Kho Kho is a tag sport that develops a players speed, agility and decision making. Players enter in batches of 3, and avoid being touched by members of the opposing team. It’s nothing like you have ever played before, come to one of our sessions and try it out!

Chasing Turn

Teams are made up of 7 players and 3 substitutes. Each team has a ‘Running Turn’ and a ‘Chasing Turn’. When ‘Chasing’, 6 players sit along the centre line, facing alternative directions. The 7th Chaser (Active Chaser) aims to catch an opponent, or gives Kho to transfer the status of Active chaser to their team mate.

Running Turn

When ‘Running’, players enter in batches of 3. Runners can run in any direction, however Chasers cannot. Once a direction is chosen by a chaser, they must commit to that direction or give Kho. When 3 of a batch are out, the next batch enters. This is repeated till time is up.
