Channel Seven shares a teaser trailer for their new game show Ultimate Tag with casting now open

Channel Seven has released a teaser trailer for their upcoming sports game show, Ultimate Tag.

A preview for the new series was uploaded to Channel Seven’s YouTube page on Thursday, asking for applicants.

‘It’s the game you played as a kid, but not like this,’ begins a voiceover, with children seen laughing and chasing each other around a lawn.

The trailer then cuts to a sports arena, with adults chasing each other through an obstacle course as an audience cheers them off.

The show is described as ‘the fastest, most intense game on Earth’ with the premiere date set for sometime next year.

‘Who will be Australia’s ultimate tag champion?’ finishes the voiceover.

Potential competitors are urged to apply for the upcoming series via the show’s website: UltimateTagCasting.com.au.  

‘This new prime time TV show is the ultimate version of everyone’s favourite schoolyard game,’ reads the application.

‘If you love running, jumping, climbing and dodging, this unique, big-event competition is for you!

‘Speed, fitness and agility will be rewarded. We’re looking for men and women who want to challenge themselves against the fittest, fastest and most daring athletes in the country.

‘Sports-lovers, fitness freaks and superheroes in training… everyone is welcome to try out!’

Applicants must be 16 years or older, with ‘a huge cash prize on offer for the best male and female players’. 

‘There’s just one rule: DON’T GET CAUGHT!’ it states.

Aside from asking would-be applicants for their personal details, the application also requires them to fill out sections based on their ‘fitness personal best’ and ‘health’.  

The show first premiered in the US earlier this year, with Seven now adapting it for Australian audiences.
