What is an Australia Ninja Games (ANG) National Qualifier?Australia Ninja Games (ANG) is the Australian Ninja League which falls under Obstacle Australia. ANG holds qualifiers around the country which enables you to qualify and compete at Nationals. The top performers at Nationals will qualify be a part of the Obstacle Australia Development or Ninja Team which will allow them to compete at various events around the World run under the Global League of World OCR – FISO.
There are currently two disciplines, Ninja and OCR (Obstacle Course Racing). Athletes are welcome to compete in one or both disciplines.
How many Athletes will Qualify for the ANG National Championships which are held in Melbourne on 24-26th Jan 2025?
NINJA – Top 3 or top 50% of Male & Female Ninjas in each division qualify to compete at ANG Nationals (whichever is greater & rounded down if participant numbers are uneven). If someone has already qualified, their qualification spot will be passed down to the next finisher.
OCR – Top 3 finishers in each division. If someone has already qualified, their qualification spot will be passed down to the next finisher.
