2021 Ozark Mountain Brawl

I am proud to announce another year of the Ozark Mountain Brawl taking place on the beautiful campus of Harding Academy in Searcy, Arkansas. This event will occur from October 29th through October 30th. We will also have the 3rd Annual Ozark Mountain Brawl Skills Challenges on Friday followed by qualification rounds. Your registration fee gets you into both events. Covid Protocols will be released two weeks prior to the event and will be in accordance with the national and state policies and with input and guidance from the medical community. Let's get ready to have a safe and fun return to play at one of FIRST's oldest offseason events.
