Ninja Nation Club & Team Overview

We love the sport of Ninja and what organizations like the WNL, UNAA, TNL and CNL are doing to move the competitive side of the sport to the forefront. Competition has always been a part of our Play, Train, Compete mantra and we love watching kids push themselves to the limits of what they thought was possible. Developing competitive talent and having a pathway for that talent is something we have done from day one at Ninja Nation.

We see having a Ninja Nation Club and a Competitive Team as the next evolution in growing the team camaraderie aspect at Ninja Nation.

Why Club & Competitive Teams?

With the goal of growing the sport of Ninja and introducing more kids and parents to the sport we wanted the Club Team to provide a once per week training option for a 3 month commitment to give kids and parents the opportunity to try the sport of Ninja and be part of the club. We also want the Club to be a great starting place for new Ninjas to join a community to help them grow into the competitive track if that's what they choose.

“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
