The Pebblebrook High School JROTC Raider team is a highly motivated athletic team comprised of only the most motivated, physically fit, and dedicated Cadets. If a candidate is not motivated, they will be unable to successfully complete the physically and mentally challenging conditioning and selection process. Cadets who successfully negotiate the conditioning phase are then subjected to the tough selection phase.

During selection, Raider candidates are required to run up to five miles, correctly do

numerous push-ups, sit-ups, and various other tasks

that are used to determine cardiovascular endurance,

flexibility, and muscular strength. Once candidates

successfully complete both phases, only the

best are selected to the Falcon Battalion

Raider Team.
