Welcome to all Raider JROTC Cadets, Instructors & Parents:

makes things SMOOTH & EASY!

The All-Service Raider Championships lead the way in showcasing the finest, most hard working Army, Marine Corps, Navy and EXPLODING Air Force JROTC Raider teams in the nation. The All-Service Raider Nationals Weekend annually attracts many of the best Male, Female and Mixed JROTC Raider teams in the country. This event has separated from the Army Championships which allows the competition to EXPAND to maintain BOTH A CHALLENGE COMPETITION AND A MASTERS EVENT. These Championships will be a strong test of your worthy program. Unwilling to continue to turn away quality programs from all services, SNI began this inclusive event and we look forward to expanding the Raider community! This event will give the biggest and best spotlight on all-service Raiders who look to attend.

The Raider Nationals weekend is expected to FILL in BOTH the CHALLENGE and MASTERS LEVELS EVERY YEAR.

Raider Teams! Compete on the BEACH in MAY

Click the logo above for information!

The upcoming All-Service Raider Championships are expected to host ROUGHLY 50 teams in the Challenge Level Championships ON FRIDAY and 70 teams in the Masters Level Championships ON SATURDAY & SUNDAY from all parts of the United States. Numerous teams have already called and asked about inclusion so we expect another full competition field this year. Special interest has come from ARMY PROGRAMS! The Army Championships are being discussed to be held two weeks earlier on a military base that will be available so long as no government shutdown occurs. The Georgia sunshine will be available and expected regardless of the whims of Congress to compete against the best teams regardless of service and budgetary tomfoolery.

Special thanks go out to all of the teams who have come before this year who have given great effort and provided much needed feedback to make the upcoming event even BETTER! We at the Raider Nationals greatly appreciate feedback and design the event to BE YOUR CHAMPIONSHIPS! We also love to give the all-service teams the publicity they deserve! Take a few minutes to look through the website to learn more. Become part of the event fun with postings on the official Raider Nationals Facebook Page where hundreds of event photos and videos are posted annually.

The Gerald Lawhorn Scouting Base serves as the gracious host for this championship event. Our November date gives us a "Crisp and chilly in the morning followed by jacket-stripping-off warmth in the afternoon" forecast most years. Camping is available with fixed tents to give cadets the ultimate Raider feel! SPECIAL NOTE: Paid Parking will be in effect for spectators attending the event competition days - Car pool and save money! The Lawhorn Scouting facility remains the premiere Raider facility in the USA for reasons almost too numerous to list. This site gives all who attend a special, big-time feel that can only be generated when the best all-service programs come out to participate!

IF YOUR SCHOOL IS PLANNING TO ATTEND THE EVENT, READ THROUGH THE SITE NOW. Changes happen from year to year so prepare early and then register early as well. By rewarding those schools who plan early and make the effort to register and complete required money and paperwork issues early, the competition field is always well-prepared, spirited, highly motivated and hugely talented. LAST YEAR MANY SCHOOLS WAITED TO REGISTER UNTIL JUST THE WEEKS PRIOR AND WERE TURNED AWAY! IF YOU PLAN TO ATTEND, REGISTER EARLY, PREPARE AND MAKE YOUR SCHOOL A PART OF THE EXCITEMENT!

IF YOU RAIDER....
COME COMPETE WITH THE BEST ALL-SERVICE RAIDER TEAMS ANYWHERE!
HAVE A QUESTION?
- Multiple Interstate highways are close for ease of travel by car, bus or van -
- "Cadillac" camp grounds - cheap camping is encouraged for all competing teams on-site! -
- Management encourages outdoor activities such a Raider and loves this event -
- Superior Raider event facilities specifically designed to challenge all teams -
- No camp entrance fees (parking fees ARE in effect) for spectators cheering on their teams! -

SNI would like to thank the many schools that have expressed an interest and also those who have taken the challenge and been a part of the "All-Service Raider Nationals". The competition is very strong every year with so many amazingly talented schools and scores of new Raider teams looking to make history. It is always a great experience, on and off the course. Here's wishing all units another successful and safe year!

Sincerely,

Justin Gates
Competition Director - Sports Network International
