Held in Savannah, Ga.,
Contestants Must Put Survival Skills to the Ultimate Test to Win a
$25,000 Cash Prize
SAVANNAH, Ga., June 17,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- BattlBox has united over
150,000 like-minded survivalists and outdoor enthusiasts since
2015, fostering an active community of adventure seekers. Today,
the brand announced BattlGames, a fierce, two-day survival
competition designed to test the skills of the most passionate
survivalists. Each round, two survivalists will be eliminated until
the final matchup, where one is eliminated and the last contestant
standing wins. Held in Savannah,
Ga. on September 13 and 14,
contestants will gather at 17 South Rod & Gun Club for a chance
to win $25,000 cash.
"This competition isn't just about
individual talent; it's about celebrating our collective knowledge
and the gear that helps us thrive in nature."
BattlGames participants will showcase their survival skills
through five heart-pounding, high-stakes, elimination-style
challenges:
- Event 1: Land Navigation – Contestants will navigate
Georgia's dense woods, using only
a map and compass to find various predesignated hidden points.
- Event 2: Set Up Camp – Contestants, paired in teams of two,
must collaborate to set up a campsite. They will need sharp
communication skills to pitch a tent, start a fire, and purify
water swiftly. The slowest team will not advance to the next round,
adding pressure for the next challenge.
- Event 3: Medical Emergency – Competitors must handle a medical
emergency, stabilizing a "hemorrhaging" casualty using provided
equipment and transporting them to a safe zone.
- Event 4: Knife Skills – Led by Doug
Marcaida, martial artist, renowned TV personality and head
judge of Forged in Fire, competitors face tests slicing through
rope, fruit, paper, water bottles, and a ballistic zombie dummy.
Marcaida is the head judge, deciding who advances to the final
round.
- Event 5: Return to Safety and Engage a Target – In the final
showdown, the last two contestants face off head-to-head. They'll
swiftly pack camp, load up a kayak, cross water, then use a firearm
to hit a target. First hit wins the BattlGames championship.
"Our aim with BattlGames is to create a milestone where our
community can come together and share their passion," said
John Roman, CEO at BattlBox. "With
thousands of expected applicants, we look forward to bringing
people from all over the country to Savannah, united by their love for the
outdoors. This competition isn't just about individual talent; it's
about celebrating our collective knowledge and the gear that helps
us thrive in nature."
