This event is going to be geared towards beginners, and people who want to try competing with a little less pressure- and to just have fun! As always, spectators are free- come and watch the athletes take on the course!

Ages 6-10: 9am-12pm

Ages 11-14: 1pm-4pm

The VERY SCARY Division: 8pm-9pm

Redemption Time: In-between waves as time allows, and 9pm-10pm

Age divisions will be based on the athlete's age on January 1st, 2027.

• Ages 6-8
• Ages 9-10
• 11-12 Male
• 11-12 Female
• 13-14 Male
• 13-14 Female
• 15-39 Male
• 15-39 Female
• 40+ Male
• 40+ Female

Difficulty divisions will be self-selected, based on experience level. The beginner and intermediate groups will run the same course in the same wave, but will have separate leaderboards/podiums.

Beginner: For athletes who have not competed in ninja before, or are very inexperienced.

Intermediate: For athletes who have competed in ninja comps before; or who are somewhere around blue-grey belt skill level, or are on Team Flame.

Very Scary: For the top level ninja athletes in the gym, this any-age division gets a course of it's own at the end of the day. One trembles to imagine what horrors await these athletes, as Coach Gavin's fury is unleashed upon the gym.

At the assigned start time for a given wave (i.e. Ages 6-10), there will be a course walkthrough. Everyone competing in that wave is expected to be present for the walkthrough. We'll go through the course, explain the rules of each obstacle, and demonstrate how it's intended to be completed, with time for questions. From there, we'll run everyone through the course, one person at a time, in a randomized order.

With any spare time we have in between waves, competitors will be allowed "Redemption Time." This is time where competitors from that wave are able to go back and try the obstacles on the course in an open gym setting.
