Competitions

Team Ninja Republic trains to compete in local and national competitions. Ninja Republic is one of the host gyms for the Bay Area Ninja League (BANL) as well as the Ultimate Ninja Athlete Association (UNAA). We also partner with the Wolfpack Pentathlon Club to host the Obstacle Course Race (OCR) portion of pentathlon qualifiers.

If you've done gymnastics or rock climbing and are looking to use your talents for something a little more fun and freeform, you should join one of our ninja team practices. Even if you just like to swing your body around with reckless abandon, we can get you hitting a buzzer in less time than you'd think.

UNAA
Ultimate Ninja Athlete Association
Season 11

Ninja Republic is proud to be hosting two UNAA competitions for Season 11. On December 20th we'll be hosting a UNAA Local Qualifier and in Spring ’26 we'll be hosting the UNAA Regional Qualifier. All podium finishers at the Local Qualifier will be invited to the Regional Qualifier; all podium finishers at the Regional Qualifiers will be invited to the National Finals in Dallas.

The Local Qualifier has a category for everyone so regardless of your skill level, you're invited to push your limits on a challenging course. Age categories start at 7U (7yrs and younger as of 1/1/25) and go all the way up to Pro Division and even 40+ and 50+. If you can run an obstacle course you can compete in UNAA!
