Test Your Skills at the MLR Championship
On June 21 at SeatGeek Stadium, middle and high school athletes will get the chance to compete in the P4 Challenge: Pass, Punt, Posts, Push presented by Recover180, a skills competition built to test the complete rugby athlete, right alongside the biggest match of the MLR season.
What Is the P4 Challenge?
The P4 Challenge pairs competitors and puts them through four stations that cover the core disciplines of the game. Power and precision. Engine and execution. The format is designed so that the best teams bring both a dominant forward presence and a dynamic backline skill set. Whether it's driving contact, launching a spiral, finding the posts, or covering ground, every station rewards a different dimension of rugby ability. The team that does it all wins.
Who's Running It?
The event is led by Lindenwood University coaches and players, who are part of one of the top collegiate rugby programs in the country.
