The competition will follow a similar format to last year, with Scouts being able to go to what events they wish and if they have time, try to improve on their scores.

For the “nerf” assault course challenge, teams of four are required to attend together at the same time.

For each of the events, there will be an individual champion. Overall, the Team competition will be decided by taking the top two scores from each event.

New this year: Laser shoot out

The individual and team winners will qualify to attend a new county competition in Spring 2026.
