Bay Area Ninja League

BAY AREA NINJA LEAGUE

The Cave, Traverse Fitness, Ninja Republic, and MVMTM are teaming up to turn ninja into a sport in the bay area!

Note: Any competitor who has competed in at least one other event during the season is eligible to register for Finals.

Registration Links Below!

Each gym will be hosting one competition on the dates below. Two courses will be designed to test our athletes skill at overcoming obstacles, these courses will include elements of parkour, ninja, and climbing.

These competitions will be for ALL LEVELS, with eight divisions: 6-8, 9-10, 11-12, 13-14, 15-17, Adult (18+), Masters (40+), and Elite.
For the first time ever, Elite is open to all ages, but be warned that it will have adult-sized obstacles and a much shorter time limit than the other divisions!
For all other divisons – your athlete’s age on September 15th 2024 will determine their age division for the whole Season. Changing age divisions after first comp is allowed, but any points they earned won’t transfer. Example: a 14yo athlete decided to compete in the Elite division in the first comp. They can switch divisions to compete in 13-14 division at future comps, but will start with 0 points towards qualifying for Finals in that 13-14 division. 12 points total are needed to qualify for finals (more details below).

Divisions will run in separate heats, so look for an email a few days out with your athletes exact run time. All families are welcome to come earlier than their heat to strategize and stay later to watch the Elites fly through the course!

$80 Early bird
$85 Two weeks out
$90 Within three days

We recommend bringing your best parkour shoes, athletic clothing, and a water bottle.

Competitors don’t have to compete at every tournament, but each competitor will need to score 12 points to qualify for the Finals.
Each competition will have two obstacle courses with individual time limits. Each course has 6 obstacles, and athletes will score one point for every completed obstacle. There is no limit to falls – if you fall, keep going until you have attempted every obstacle or run out of time! It is possible to score all 12 points in a single qualifier, with two perfect runs on two obstacle courses. However, this is as challenging as it sounds, so if your athlete dreams of competing at the Finals, we recommend planning to compete at least twice.
