“Hello Ninjas,
For those of you who have applied for Season 17, or plan to apply, we wanted to share details about this year’s exciting competition. ANW 17 will be a celebration of Ninja’s Past, Present, and Future, featuring obstacles and many fan favorite ninjas from the past, along with our current athletes. All three rounds of competition will be held in Las Vegas from 9/23 - 10/5. Once you are cast you’ll be informed of your shoot dates. The first 2 rounds of competition are a bit of a nod to ANW’s past:
Qualifying rounds will be held on the standard 6-obstacle course, ending at the Warped Wall.
Semi-final rounds will be a return to the familiar 10-obstacle course we used in past Semi-final and City-finals.
Those who advance, move onto the National Finals which will be held a few days after all the Qualifying and Semi-finals are completed.
The future of ninja is speed course, be it in the Olympics, or local competitions, so for this season we’re adapting our National Finals. There will be no Stages 1, 2, and 3, nor the rope climb on Stage 4. Instead, those who advance will compete on a series of side-by-side race courses featuring memorable obstacles from the shows history. Win your races and you advance, with the ultimate Champion guaranteed to take home $250,000.
We’re sure you have questions, and they will be answered over time. This is just a preliminary announcement to help you prepare for competition.
If you haven’t sent in your submission, please do so soon, as space will be limited for this special season.d
Thanks,
The ANW Team.
