WHAT IS RAIDER? CHIEF'S DEFINITION:
AN OSBORNE RAIDER IS PHYSICALL FIT AND MENTALLY STRONG. A RAIDER TAKES CARE OF HIS/HER RESPONSIBILITIES AT HOME AND AT SCHOOL. A RAIDER KNOWS THAT TEAM WORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK. A RAIDER IS ROUGH AND TOUGH AND DON'T TAKE NO STUFF. A RAIDER IS ALL THE WAY UP!
Raider Competition or "Raider" as it is more commonly known is a very popular athletic competition held within Junior ROTC programs around the United States. It is the Junior ROTC equivalent of the Army ROTC "Ranger" competition in college, only far less dangerous but very challenging as well! The events are held outdoors in state parks or large expansive wooded areas.
The exact Raider events differ depending on where you are competing much like every golf course is slightly different but the game is the same. Generally, no matter where you compete, there will be some type of personal fitness/individual strength test (i.e., push-ups, curl-ups, tire drag, obstacle course, etc.) There will also be a distance team running event, along with some type of through the woods obstacle type event, and also some form of rescue/first aid event (rescuing a body from the woods on a liter). Lastly, almost every Raider event has some form of Rope Bridge construction/transport component. Other events can be maintained and often are held including first aid test, land navigation, etc. but I think you get the general idea that this is a mental and physical test of strength and endurance that takes a committed group of youngsters willing to train hard to prepare for to be safe and successful.
While the vast majority of Raider teams are formed within Army JROTC programs, some of these teams are also found within Marine Corps, Navy and even a few Air Force programs. Most schools who "Raider" have a male team, but almost as many have a mixed team. Some bigger schools also offer a separate female team, or any combination depending on the number of cadets within to participate. Competing in Raider is a great way for JROTC cadets to stay mentally and physically in shape in a military framework. Mostly, it is the most mega-hooah activity in all of JROTC!

2017 Army JROTC Raider Schedule
************************************************* WHAT'S ON MY MIND? We had a lunch for the outgoing seniors yesterday. Elizabeth Zapata's really touch me. She spoke of how much she loved Raiders and would miss the team. She was very emotional. You could see through the tears how much she loved our team. It just made me think of the upcoming seniors and how I hope you all are taking this upcoming season seriously and preparing yourselves for some tough training. You do not want to have any regrets such as I should have traing harder, I should have made conditioning...etc. If you do not love it as much as Zapata, then this is not the team for you. I need more Raiders like Zapata. Practice hard everyday, make no excuses, be a team player and just love the hell out of RAIDERS! I will miss you Zapata. And yes, I will miss all of the graduating Raiders. IT'S A RAIDER THING. PEOPLE JUST DO NOT UNDERSTAND._______________________
