The Gauntlet is an event hosted by the Pilipino American Alliance since its inception in 2008.
The Gauntlet is held on the UC Merced campus in the spring semester. A spirit rally, we invite all clubs and organizations on campus to come and participate and compete against each other in 5 different games both physical and mental as well as showing off their club spirit to one another.
Through this, the clubs compete for either The Gauntlet Trophy and/or the Spirit Trophy
All participating clubs will be competing for the title of “The Gauntlet Champions” and “The Spirit Winners” of that year. Winners will have bragging rights and they will have their club’s/organization’s name engraved on The Gauntlet Trophy and The Spirit Trophy.
For more information about The Gauntlet contact our Director(s) of Social Affairs @ paa.ucm.social@gmail.com
