The Ninja Challenge League State Youth Finals are the culmination of a season of qualifiers across Australia, providing an opportunity for the top youth athletes from across the country to test their skills, develop their abilities, and socialise with fellow ninja enthusiasts.
The State Youth Finals will consist of up to two stages of competition over the course of a single day.
Select a button below for more information on each event, including run order and live results.
In the first stage, competitors will face a speed course with a tight time limit, and must hit the buzzer to officially progress to Stage 2. If a competitor falls on Stage 1, their run will officially be over, but they’ll be able to attempt the remaining obstacles until their time limit expires.
If less than 10 competitors clear Stage 1, then unofficial runs will be given to the next best performing competitors until there are 10 runners in Stage 2.
In the second stage, competitors will face a more technical, challenging course with a more generous time limit, with final rankings determined by furthest fastest.
Any unofficial runners will attempt Stage 2 first, followed by official runners.
If an unofficial runner fails on an obstacle on Stage 2, their run will be over and they will have to clear the course for the next athlete without attempting any remaining obstacles.
If an official runner fails on an obstacle on Stage 2, their run will officially be over, but they’ll be able to attempt the remaining obstacles until their time limit expires.
The top boys and girls in each age division of the NCL Youth Finals 2024 will also qualify to compete in the World Ninja League World Championships in the United States in mid-2025.
