Unleash the beast within at Tribal Warrior Challenge 2017

-

KUCHING: The state’s fi rst- ever ‘Tribal Warrior Challenge’ (TWC) will take place at the Sarawak Stadium here on Aug 19.

The obstacle course series is organised under the year-long ‘Redefi ning Global Tribes’ ( RGT) campaign. Participat­ion is open to all members of the public and registrati­on can be done via www. tribalwarr­ior.my.

The TWC will have two categories for warriors of all fitness levels – the ‘Rite of Passage’ that comprises 7km race for families and individual­s wishing to test their mettle; and the ‘Headhunter’ which is 10km race designed for serious fitness enthusiast­s.

The TWC is the brainchild of both Sarawak Convention Bureau ( SCB) and innovative partner Borneo Tru Events.

According to SCB chief operating officer Amelia Roziman, TWC is a physical and mental teamwork event that will challenge the participan­ts to push their personal limits and possibly rediscover the new meaning of the values ‘unity, community and identity’ – the same values advocated by the RGT campaign.

“The TWC will have two categories for warriors of all fitness levels – the ‘Rite of Passage’ that comprises 7km race for families and individual­s wishing to test their mettle; and the ‘Headhunter’ which is 10km race designed for serious fitness enthusiast­s.

“The course will be set within the beautiful landscapes of Borneo. When designing the TWC, the organisers wanted to package it as a completely unique, wholesome and unforgetta­ble experience set against unique panorama,” she said.

The TWC will coincide with the RGT familiaris­ation trip in the middle of next month, which will welcome 100 experts from national and internatio­nal associatio­ns, academia, corporatio­ns, media and convention ambassador­s in the business events industry – all of whom will gather and be part of the showdown.
