Spring Break Challenge is a one-off MTV reality game show spun off from MTV's long-running reality game show, The Challenge. The spin-off series was somewhat cast-contestant dependent on The Challenge in that the Spring Break Challenge used various contestants from the precursor program. (To date, The Challenge has only used one contestant from Spring Break Challenge.) Spring Break Challenge is also cast-contestant dependent on MTV's two flagship reality programs, The Real World and the now cancelled series Road Rules. As with The Challenge, T. J. Lavin was the host of Spring Break Challenge.
The program aired from March 22-26, 2010 in Acapulco, Mexico (prior to the airing of The Challenge's 19th season), during MTV's annual spring break coverage. This spin-off featured teams of college-aged friends in various challenges of old and new based on previous seasons of The Challenge. The Spring Break Challenge cast was made up of original contestants from colleges across the country, as well as alumni from previous seasons of The Real World, Road Rules, and the Fresh Meat challenge serving as coaches.
