How it Works
Teams can consist of a maximum of 8 team members. Each team competes in at least 2 timed events during the Fire Truck Pull.
1. Fastest Pull
Eight team members will collectively grab hold of the rope and work together to swiftly pull the fire truck a distance of 30 feet. The objective is to complete the pull as quickly as possible, all within a strict time limit of three minutes
2. Lowest Combined Weight Pull
Each team will aim to pull the fire truck a distance of 30 feet while utilizing the minimum number of team members possible. Teams have the flexibility to begin with a smaller team and can opt to add members during the pull if necessary. The challenge comes with a 4-minute time limit, and the victorious team will be determined by achieving the fastest pull over the specified distance with the lowest combined weight of team members
3. Top 4 Teams Playoff Pull
The top 4 teams in each event will qualify for an exciting playoff pull that will determine the event winner!
