- Five mini courses
- 30 minutes on the clock
Date: Saturday, October 10th
Location: Fitset Ninja Edmonton, 8516 106a Ave NW Edmonton, AB T5H 0S4
Get ready for the first-ever CNL Stage 1 Scramble hosted by Fitset Ninja! We’re bringing this exciting, fast-paced competition format to our athletes for the very first time.
Instead of getting just one shot at a single long course, competitors will have 30 minutes to scramble through five custom mini courses, racing the clock as many times as they like to earn their best possible scores and qualify for Stage 2.
What to Expect
Competitions are the ultimate highlight of the ninja season! Whether you’re aiming for the top of the CNL leaderboard or taking on your first official event, this competition is designed to test your skills, build community, and showcase incredible athleticism.
Fast-Paced Mini Courses: Courses are short, intense (under a minute), and scaled specifically to each age category.
More Attempts, Better Scores: The scramble format gives you multiple chances to conquer tricky movements, refine your strategy, and put up your absolute best run.
Top Competition: As an official Canadian Ninja League Stage 1 qualifier, we look forward to welcoming talented athletes from across the region.
Spectators Welcome: Family and friends are encouraged to come cheer on the athletes!
How It Works
Time Window: Each age category gets 30 minutes in a time-trial format across 5 mini-obstacle courses set up throughout the gym.
Balanced Skill Test: Each course focuses on a different element of ninja skills (e.g., upper body, agility, balance, power).
Tiered Scoring: Faster times earn higher point tiers.
- 🥇 Platinum: 20 pts
- 🥇 Gold: 15 pts
- 🥈 Silver: 10 pts
- 🥉 Bronze: 5 pts
Retries Encouraged: Your single best result on each course will count toward your final score.
Winner: Points are tallied across all five courses after 30 minutes—the highest total score wins the category!
Tentative Schedule
Doors open at 07:45 AM. Competition starts at 08:00 AM.
Note: A finalized schedule will be released the week of the event. Start times may shift depending on registration numbers. Podium presentations and prize announcements will follow directly after the conclusion of each category.
