The Premier Series 3 Finals are here and the stage is set for an unforgettable showdown! It’s all going down Saturday and Sunday, November 22-23 at Motus Ninja in Lee’s Summit, MO. Every moment will be live-streamed and you won’t want to miss it!
The energy is electric, and the competition is fierce as athletes from around the world come together for the final showdown of Premier Series Season 3. This year’s Finals bring together returning champions, rising stars, and several World Champions ready to flip the script and shake up the leaderboard. If you love edge-of-your-seat runs, this is the event to watch.
Fan favorites Riley and Justine B, who finished 1st and 2nd at the Season X World Championships, are back and better than ever. Both athletes have grown tremendously this season, pushing their skills, speed, and confidence to new levels. Whether Riley repeats or Justine takes the spotlight, one thing is clear: both athletes are elevating the division in incredible ways.
We’re also thrilled to see Joey Stone, Premier Series Season 2 Kids Male Champion, return to defend his title. Joey brings consistency, grit, and a calm-under-pressure style that makes him one of the most exciting athletes to watch. No matter the outcome, this division is full of young talent ready to show just how far they’ve come
Ariana Merchant, Premier Series Season 2 Kids Female Champion, has aged up into the Mature Kids Division, and her progression has been nothing short of inspiring. She’s proven time and time again that she can rise to the challenge, and her transition into this new age group is a chance to showcase her growing strength, maturity, and adaptability.
Ariana isn’t just stepping up, she’s leveling up.
The storylines get even more exciting as several standout athletes take on new challenges.
Both Tyler Bowers and Meghan Moore, Premier Series Season 2 Mature Kids Champions, have moved into the Preteen Division this year, and they’re doing it with confidence and momentum behind them.
Meghan enters with an impressive streak: she’s never left a Premier Series Final without a gold medal. But what fans admire most is her determination and ability to perform when the pressure is highest. This year, she’ll be up against athletes like Cayleigh Hanlon, the Season X World Champion — a matchup that promises to bring out the absolute best in both competitors.
Tyler is also stepping into a stacked field but continues to show the same focus and drive that made him a champion last season. With athletes like Gavin Sheils, the Season X World Champion and Premier Series Season 2 Champion, in the mix, this division is full of incredible potential and positive momentum.
No matter who stands on top of the podium, these divisions showcase what Premier Series is all about: growth, opportunity, and athletes pushing themselves to new heights.
When it comes to pure power and precision, the Elite Division delivers every time.
Jackson Erdos, our defending Premier Series Champion, is looking to defend his title, but it won’t be an easy road. Noah Meunier, the Season X World Champion, is coming into this event focused and has his sights set on the top spot.
In the Elite Female Division, all eyes will be on Addy Herman and Nora Brown-John, two athletes at the very top of the sport. Addy enters as the Season X Elite Female World Champion, known for her fierce efficiency and ability to stay calm under pressure. Nora, the reigning Premier Series Champion and a top performer at Worlds, has proven she can dominate across multiple formats.
Together, they create one of the most thrilling matchups of the Finals: a showdown between the current World Champion and the reigning Elite Female Premier Series Champion.
