Template:EventThe First Year Stage of the U.A. Sports Festival was an event held during the U.A. Sports Festival Arc.
Overview
Following the U.S.J. Incident, U.A. High decided to go along with their annual Sports Festival despite the attack. The festival was deemed too important to cancel, and increased security measures were taken to ensure the safety of the students. [1] First-year classes A-F participated in the First Year Stage of the festival. Katsuki Bakugo lead the student pledge.
Event Organizers
Midnight was the chief referee for the entire festival. She explained the rules to each event and would decide on how to proceed when any unique situation would arise. All of the events are announced by Shota Aizawa and Present Mic. Present Mic did the majority of the commentating, with Shota inserting his opinion from time to time. Cementoss oversaw the finals. He would repair the stage after each fight and would stop the fights if they endangered student lives.

Preliminary Event: Obstacle Race
During the preliminary round, all eleven first-year classes raced along a four-kilometer-long obstacle course around the festival stadium.Participants were allowed to use their Quirk's freely to try and win, as long as they do not leave the race course. [2]The first forty-two competitors that finish advanced to the second event.
The first obstacle of the race was 'Robo Inferno": a blockade of villain robots from the Entrance Exam. [3] The second obstacle was "The Fall": a canyon that must be trekked across by walking along tightropes. Students who fell were automatically eliminated. The third and final leg of the course was a Mine Field.[4]

Team Event: Cavalry Battle
In the second event, participants formed teams with a maximum of 4 people and then got in a horse configuration. The objective was to earn points by swiping other teams' headbands while protecting their own. The value of a team's headband would be the sum of the points each person on the team had received based on their performance in the previous competition. The person who ranked last would be worth 5 points, and each rank above that would be worth 5 more points than the previous one, with the exception of 1st place, which was worth 10 million points.[5]
The one to wear the headband must be the rider, and they were not allowed to wear it below their neck. Should the team lose their headband or crumble as a horse configuration, they would still not be eliminated. Participants were allowed to use their Quirks, but, should they attack with the malicious intention of harming another participant, they'd be forced out of the game.[6]
