The first NSW Ninja Challenge League qualifier event of 2025 will be held at Ninja Kids Brookvale on Sunday, March 2nd. It is ninja competition open to all ninjas born between 2011 and 2018. It can be treated as a stand alone event, or as a chance to qualify for the national finals.

Format

The run order at Ninja Challenge qualifier events is randomly generated by a spreadsheet.

Competitors will have one official attempt at the course and their official result will be recorded from their first fall, but they will be able to attempt each remaining obstacle once until all have been attempted so all competitors get an opportunity to display all their abilities in an unofficial capacity.

There is no overall time limit, but competitors will be limited to 20 seconds of rest between each obstacle, with the exception of Warped Walls, which will be limited to 30 seconds of rest between each attempt to scale the wall.

Competitors will be ranked based on furthest/fastest, with points awarded based on where a competitor ranks at the event, with bonuses for finishing the course and placing on the podium for their division and the overall podium.

Points are used to rank competitors on our national standings, which dictate the seeding at Finals events.

Finals Qualification

The top competitors in each division will qualify for their respective Finals events, which will be held at Geelong Ninjas in October.

The number of Finals spots available in each division will range from 1 to 5 based on the number of competitors in that division at this qualifier.

Successful qualifiers will be notified by the NCL via email – this is the only source of official confirmation, there may be reviews that take place that could change placings announced by in-person event staff.

Tickets

Competitors are allowed a discounted $25 debut ticket at their first event each season. All other qualifier tickets cost $50.
