This test is based on speed and accuracy. The team goal is to answer the most difficult questions, correctly, in the time allotted. Each question has a point value commensurate with its difficulty. Each team is given a 25 question test, the team then has ten minutes to answer as many questions as possible in that time. In this event the team must answer various questions on advanced land navigation. The number one team is The Ranger Challenge Winner for that year!Ī typical breakdown of events is as follows:

The best team in each event is awarded a trophy as are the first, second, and third place teams. This is how the entire day is spent: doing an event, moving to the next one, completing that event, and so on until all the events for day one are done lunch is eaten in between events.Įach team is awarded points based on how well they perform in each event (20 points for number one, 19 for second, etc.).

On the first day, each team begins at one of the various events (except for the APFT which is on day two) and once complete, moves to another in a specific order chosen at random the night before. The mission is to challenge Cadets' mental and physical toughness and to develop leadership while fostering teamwork and esprit-de-corps. This competition is conducted over two days on a non-tactical course. Teams train all the way up until the Brigade Ranger Challenge Competition. Ranger Challenge team members accomplish more before 0800 than most college students accomplish in an entire day. Teams form early in the semester and train rigorously nearly every morning of the week. The video fullscreen after launch.The Brigade Ranger Challenge is the Army ROTC Varsity Sport.
