NNL Competition November 7th and 8th 2020

Freedom Gymnastics and Obstacle Training is part of the National Ninja League! We will be hosting our 4th NNL competition on November 7th and 8th 2020, which will have a variety of obstacles designed by our very own Matt Guardo (The Pocono Ninja). There will be variations of obstacles seen on American Ninja Warrior as well as some new and interesting challenges including our unique pegboard challenge THE PEG MONSTER!

The course for each age group will consists of between 10 and 20 obstacles that will test a variety of skills including balance, coordination, grip strength, grip endurance and upper body power.

The top three competitors in each age group (top 2 for Elite Division) will qualify to compete in the National Ninja League Regional Finals competitions that will be held in 2021.

COVID-19 RULES & PRECAUTIONS

We assume that COVID-19 will still be with us in November and ask for everyone's cooperation in helping us provide a safe environment for all the athletes and participants. As part of this we have made the following changes.

Everyone that enters the building will have to pass a temperature check and will be asked to sanitize or wash their hands.
Spectators are limited to the athlete plus a maximum of two additional people.
Only athletes will be allowed in the warmup area. Athletes will only be allowed in the warmup area in small groups right before they run the course.
Athletes and their families will wait in the main gymnastics gym until they are called into the Ninja Gym to compete. There will be video feeds into the main gym for athletes and their families to watch the competition.
Only 5 groups will be allowed in the Ninja Gym at a time with a maximum of 3 people per group (including the athlete and any coaches).
We ask that all spectators, coaches and volunteers wear masks at all times.
Athletes are asked to wear mask except when they are warming up and competing. Masks are optional at these times.
Everyone is asked to maintain a 6 foot distance from other athletes and families whenever possible.
In place of redemption time athletes will be allowed to run through the course an additional time after all athletes have competed. Multiple athlete will be running the course at the same time separated by approximately 30 seconds.
PLEASE ARRIVE 30 MINUTES BEFORE YOUR SESSION TO CHECK IN AND WARM UP.
