EXPECTATIONS: Some of the best Law Enforcement & Military Special Operations Teams compete in this event. Every year our competitors get better and stronger, we follow! Our competition is highly competitive with fitness, tactics, medicine, marksmanship and heart! Everyone must shoot (case by case exceptions on a shooter/medic team). We will have live fire and force on force drills/scenarios. The TRC is also a unique training event. This competition is not limited to just special operators and tactical teams. Any LE units that can be put in harms way to stop an active threat are eligible and encouraged to compete. This event will sell out!
