Teams of four run a timed obstacle course.

Sixty teams of four take on the course in Kells, against the clock. Every player must be 16 or over, and every team needs at least one female. The three fastest teams win the prize money.

Any money your team raises over the €3,000 threshold goes directly back to your own club or charity.
