Why These Area Qualifiers Matter in UNAA Season 11

As UNAA Season 11 progresses, Area Qualifiers play a critical role in:

  • Advancing athletes toward higher-level competitions

  • Earning ranking points

  • Gaining experience on pressure-filled courses

  • Identifying strengths and weaknesses early in the season

For many athletes, these mid-season qualifiers are where momentum is built or lost. Strong performances here can set the tone for the rest of the year.


Texas Athletes: Bedford Is a Big Opportunity

With Conquer Ninja Gyms Bedford hosting a January 18 Area Qualifier, athletes in Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Grand Prairie, Irving, and surrounding DFW cities have a prime opportunity to compete without extensive travel.

Local qualifiers allow athletes to:

  • Reduce travel fatigue

  • Compete in familiar conditions

  • Stay consistent with training schedules

For Texas-based ninjas, this is one of the most convenient and important stops of the season.


Training Focus Heading Into January 18

With competition quickly approaching, athletes should be sharpening key areas, including:

  • Grip endurance and efficiency

  • Obstacle transitions under fatigue

  • Controlled speed and precision

  • Mental composure on competition day

At this stage of the season, smart training matters more than volume.


Registration Reminder

UNAA has encouraged athletes to make sure they are registered ahead of time. Area Qualifiers often fill quickly, especially in competitive regions like Texas.

If you’re planning to compete:

  • Double-check registration deadlines

  • Confirm division eligibility

  • Review travel and warm-up plans


UNAA Season 11 Is Heating Up

With multiple Area Qualifiers happening across the country on January 18, UNAA Season 11 is moving fast. Whether you’re competing in Wisconsin, Tennessee, or Texas, this weekend represents another major step toward the later stages of the season.
