Savage League 2024 Kicks Off With New Format: TR Athletes Shine Across Division

The 2024 edition of the Savage League launched on October 13th, bringing high-energy competition across three divisions, each featuring teams of six athletes. This year’s format introduces a fresh approach: rather than selecting four athletes to compete each week as in previous years, the Games are now divided into three parts, with teams selecting any four athletes of their six in each segment. This innovative change allows all athletes the opportunity to compete each week if desired, creating more flexibility and strategy for the teams.

 

Game 1 Recap: Teams Battle It Out in Three-Part Workouts

 

Game 1 of the Savage League featured a three-part workout across all divisions, with increasingly challenging skills for higher categories. The event saw impressive performances from Training Room athletes, with teams competing in Division 1 and the Premier Division.
