World Ninja League Competitions at Life Force Ninja
Competitions at Life Force Ninja are challenging, rewarding, and fun! We take pride in putting together unique and creative obstacle courses that are sure to challenge all abilities. Last season, our Northwest Regional Championships courses earned us the “Best Course Design” award from the World Ninja League. Our 18,000 sq ft facility provides plenty of room for athletes to warmup, and for spectators to watch. We livestream all of our competitions, as well as provide live commentary on each athlete. We strive to make our competitions special for every athlete!
World Ninja League Northwest Tier 1 Regional
May 15-17, 2026
Welcome to the Northwest Tier 1/Tier 2 combined Regional Championship! Remember, to participate in this competition, you must be qualified from the Northwest region in either Tier 1 or Tier 2. Top 16 or top 35% in each age/gender division will advance to WNL World Championships, taking place in Greensboro, NC in June.
Each athlete will be running two courses for this competition. The first course will be a speed course using Flow Course rules. The second course will be a longer course using Challenge Course rules for Tier 1, and Full Course rules for Tier 2. Both courses will count toward an athletes’ final standings. Athletes will receive points based on their placements on each course and the best combined score will win the Course Overall title – and the Regional Championship.
Our event age groups and run dates are listed below. You will register in the same division you’ve been competing in this season. Awards will be handed out after each course wave, with redemption time taking place at the end of each day! Medals will be awarded to top three finishers in every age/gender division. Cash prizes of $100 will be awarded to the top three finishers in the Elite male and female division.
