The UA Combine is a fitness testing competition organized by the sports equipment company Under Armour. Competitions were held in September and October 2022, in Singapore, Sydney, Kuala Lumpur, and Bangkok.
Each competition involved 300 athletes performing eight fitness tests in a single day. Points were earned for each completed test and athletes were ranked according to their results. The winners were awarded cash prizes. For example, the Australian competition had prizes of $5000, $2500 and $1000 for individuals in the first three places. There was also a team competition.
