Tug-of-war, once an integral part of the Olympic Games, was featured in five editions between 1900 and 1920.

The Tug of War Association argues for the sport’s reintroduction to the Olympics, emphasizing its straightforward rules, spectator appeal, and accessibility. The sport requires minimal equipment and space, making it easy for anyone to participate.

The association remains hopeful that tug-of-war will one day return to the world’s largest sporting stage.

Guest: Daniel McCarthy, President of the Tug-of-War International Federation
