Firebreak! A game of directable fire. With it’s origins in the burning years and needing to train children to handle PPE for smoke, it’s gradually evolved into a more playful mode. Over several days the competitors build quickwood structures and an artificial forest. The teams have “home trees” to protect and defend, and a limited supply of water to extinguish it. The central artificial forest is ignited and let spread before the teams can leave (leaf) their home trees. The sport supports a variable amount of teams. In some rural areas It’s also considered a coming of age ritual in forested areas, which imparts valuable lessons about life and rescue work.
