Purpose / description
Get ready for the event of the year! The Ninja Warrior Obstacle Course at Rick’s Place returns in early 2026, bringing a heart-pounding mix of excitement and physical challenges. Athletes from all over Fayetteville, Fort Bragg, and across the country will face off on two incredible obstacle courses, designed to push competitors to their absolute limits. Suspended in the air with nothing but their grit, strength, and agility to guide them, participants will battle through each thrilling station, all while friends, family, and spectators cheer them on.
With two courses—one for intermediate-level athletes and one for elite warriors—there’s a challenge for everyone. Whether you’re testing your skills for the first time or a seasoned obstacle course competitor, the Ninja Warrior event promises to push your endurance, strength, and mental fortitude. While jumping, climbing, and swinging at extreme heights over bodies of water, you’ll get to experience the same excitement and intensity as the TV show right here at Rick’s Place! Elite and intermediate courses are designed by Darren Jeffrey, the visionary behind the American Ninja Warrior Obstacle Courses. *
On Saturday’s and Sunday’s, individual runs will be open to the military community, giving everyone the chance to rise to the occasion and conquer the course. Reservations are required to run the courses, with the fastest time winning a cash prize!
For those looking to run with friends or colleagues, we’ve got you covered! Private access to the course can be reserved for your unit or company during the week, offering a fantastic way to build team spirit and test your collective strength.
Are you ready to prove what you’re made of?
Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to be a part of the world’s premier obstacle course challenge! Whether you’re a seasoned warrior or just stepping into the arena, the Ninja Warrior Obstacle Course promises an unforgettable experience for athletes, families, and spectators alike. Get ready for the ultimate test of strength and determination!
