This years CrossFit Games season starts with Open Sectionals. For 6 weeks starting in March CrossFit.com will post a workout on Tuesday night, by Sunday times must be submitted by all participating athletes. The beauty of this format is that is truly open for anyone. It requires no travel and will be as simple as coming for a normal workout. Albeit you will be judged and the excitement level and pressure will be a bit higher. The other main difference is it may qualify you for the CrossFit Games and a prize of $250,000!
The reason we are posting about the Games season now is we want you to compete. Yes, You. Our affiliate will be registering a team for this year and everyone in the gym can be on the team. There will be no limit to the number of athletes that can be on our affiliate team for the Open Sectionals and the top 6 athletes times will be compared to the top 6 athletes from other affiliates. All team members must be registered by Sunday, March 20th, the closing date for submissions on the first Open workout.
As an added bonus if we can get enough athletes to compete we may win a prize. (Prize: The Official team with the most athletes will win 2 tickets per athlete to the CrossFit Games in July, plus their next affiliate fee will be waived, and they get a plaque for their gym.)
