On 22nd November 2023, Manu’a High School JROTC executed their internal Cadet Challenge on campus and at Ta’u village. The Segaula task force did not participate in the annual Cadet Challenge competition in Tutuila due to weather and transportation challenges. The task force decided to fulfill the requirements in accordance with CC Reg 145-2: U1C5L2.

The primary goal is to demonstrate the Cadets’ physical fitness level and leadership skills in leading their teams for each event, which is an introduction to the necessary behaviors required to achieve specific goals regarding physical fitness and dealing with decision-making.
Activities:
The Segaula task force advertised their vision and mission models/missions, to equip themselves with tools to enhance their abilities to deal with 21st-century challenges academically and physically:
•1-mile run/Turkey Run in Ta’u village

•V-Sit
•Pull-Up/Flexed Arm Hang
