Are you a ninja ?

Ninja competitions are events where individuals and teams compete on Ninja Warrior style obstacles. Competitions are held on courses between 25 m and 200 m long with 4 or more Ninja Warrior obstacles, as head-to-head races or timed competitions. 

Unlike OCR, is there is little or no running in Ninja competitions. Events have been popularized by the American Ninja Warrior, Ultimate Beastmaster and Sasuke television show competitions in 148 countries. A billion people worldwide follow these shows. The official international League for Ninja Competitions is the Ultimate Ninja Athlete Association and the Australian League is the Australia Ninja Games.
