Training Tower Partner of the Firefighter Challenge League

WHP is proud to be the Official Training Tower Partner of the Firefighter Challenge League. The Firefighter Challenge League is a premier sports event organization that hosts competitive events, promoting firefighters’ physical fitness and mental toughness while showcasing their skills and commitment to the communities they serve. This demanding physical challenge brings firefighters from around the world together to participate.

“In this first year of our partnership, we are proud to add our support by providing the event with our WHP Firefighter Challenge Tower,” said Maggie Scaletty, COO of WHP Trainingtowers™. “By supporting this league, we can help elevate the importance of ongoing training and preparedness in the firefighting community.”

Firefighter Challenge League Competition

The Firefighter Challenge League is an annual event that brings together the best of the elite firefighters from the US and around the world. The events are both skill-based and time-based. The competition pits firefighters against each other in a battle of physical ability across five essential functions including:

  • High-Rise Pack Carry
  • Hose Heist
  • Forcible Entry
  • Hose Advance
  • Victim Rescue

“The Firefighter Challenge Tower will be one of the focal points of the competition,” Scaletty added. “We are thrilled to be an integral part of the challenge series.”

A Perfect Partnership

“Because this event aligns perfectly with our mission to promote firefighter training and provide top-of-the-line products to aid in their crucial work, there was no doubt we had to partner with the Firefighter Challenge League,” said Joe Kirchner, Vice President of Operations at WHP Trainingtowers™. “Congratulations to the Firefighter Challenge Championship Series for another great year ahead, and to CEO Russell Jackson for his leadership,” Kirchner added.
