It is clear from the moment you arrive in Fort Lauderdale your weekend is part fierce competition with some of the best all star gyms in the country and part winter paradise. Immerse yourself – in the mosaic of Greater Fort Lauderdale! With its 23 miles of beautiful beaches and pleasant average temperatures of 70 degrees in January, you don’t have to go to an actual jungle to warm up and shake off those winter blues! Come to the All Star Challenge’s King of the Jungle and experience the beastly competition as teams roar and rumble!
The competition takes place in the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention Center located directly on the Atlantic Intercoastal Waterway. Our host hotel, the Fort Lauderdale Grand with its luxurious pools and hot tubs, is located within walking distance! Your next getaway can be as awe-inspiring as miles of blue waterways, as inviting as soft golden sands and as soothing as gentle ocean breezes. If your next getaway is to King of the Jungle, that is.
All teams compete twice, once on Saturday and then in a final round on Sunday. The famous STAR trophies are awarded to EVERY team, as well as Championship gifts and banners to the National Champion in each division. Up to 30 awards for outstanding achievement may be awarded to teams regardless of level of completion. Finally, every team has the opportunity to compete for $1000 in cash prizes ($19,000 total) in the All Star Challenge signature Superdivision competition. (See superdivision information contained here and on the website at www.allstarchallenge.com.) There is something for everyone but there can be only one King of the Jungle.
