The 2021 CrossFit Open is COMING TO YOU HERE AT CROSSFIT ALLSTAR!
This is the best example of our core value of 'COMMUNITY'. This year you will blow our minds with 100% participation, of course we'll be STOKED on any amount of folks being included, but the more the merrier for sure this year! ALL MEMBERS ENCOURAGED TO REGISTER! There are divisions for ALL PEOPLE including RX, scaled, masters, adaptive athletes, and 'no equipment'. YES EVEN OUR COVID GYM MEMBERS WHO ARE STILL AT HOME CAN PARTICIPATE WITH US! Are you a member who wants to come BACK for the Open or RESTART at CrossFit AllStar? YES YOU CAN! We'd love to have you!
NEW THIS YEAR....We're organizing a CrossFit AllStar 'INTRAMURAL OPEN' just for members of our gym!
What does 'intramural' mean? A quick google says it is "The term, which is chiefly North American, derives from the Latin words intra muros meaning "within walls", and was used to describe sports matches and contests that took place among teams from "within the walls" of an institution or area...The term dates to the 1840's.
For this years CrossFit Open, we will be taking ALL OF OUR CROSSFIT ALLSTAR MEMBERS WHO REGISTER FOR THE OPEN, and creating our own Intramural teams at random, within our own gym. Depending on how many people register, depends on how many teams we will have and how many Coaches will lead each team. POINTS FOR YOUR TEAM WILL NOT BE EARNED BY YOUR WORKOUT SCORE, BUT BY PARTICIPATION ONLY! So don't worry about pressure to perform!
EARN POINTS FOR YOUR TEAM BY:
- REGISTERING for THE OPEN (earn 1 point)
- PERFORM each workout in any division, RX, scaled, masters, 'no equipment', adaptive... (earn 1 point per workout, if you re-do a WOD you do not get extra points!)
- WEAR your team shirt when you perform the workout (earn 1 point)
- STAY after the workout to support and cheer on everyone (earn 1 point)
- POST something positive about your team/gym to social media during the Open (earn 1 point per post)
- EACH TEAM WILL KEEP TRACK of points on a group clipboard/chart in the gym easy peasy!
- TEAM WITH MOST POINTS EARNS SERIOUS BRAGGING RIGHTS ALL...YEAR....LONG:) We will also collect prizes from sponsors for the winning team along the way but we'll need time to work on this - stay tuned!
THE DETAILS ON TEAM SHIRTS:
- All CrossFit AllStar Members who register for The CrossFit Open online will be placed on an 'Intramural Team'
- All Intramural Teams will be chosen at random, name drawn out of a hat
- Each team will come up with a team name and be led by a coach or pair of coaches
- Each team will have a different color shirt to wear (shirt color will be picked out of a hat at random)
- YOU CAN CHOOSE TO REGISTER AND CHOOSE YOUR SHIRT SIZE, but you cannot choose your team or shirt color!
- Due to our own internal deadlines for productions of the shirts, the DEADLINE TO REGISTER FOR THE CROSSFIT OPEN WILL BE FEBRUARY 19TH. This will allow enough time to get the team shirts made before the first WOD on March 11.
SAMPLE (not our gym) OF SHIRT LOGO FOR THE INTRAMURAL CROSSFIT OPEN.....We will have our own designer come up with our gym logo, you can count on it having some reference to the CrossFit Open, our home gym name CrossFit AllStar, the year 2021, and our 'tag line' Together Strong or other reference.
COSTS:
- $20 fee to register at https://games.crossfit.com/open That money goes to CrossFit Inc. NOT to CrossFit AllStar.
- $15 shirt fee. That money is the wholesale cost of the shirt to participate in the Intramural. You pay the gym this fee but the gym will not make profit on the shirts, you pay wholesale woohoo!
- OTHER FEES? NONE! We are providing you this experience as a 'reboot' after COVID, a chance to do something GREAT TOGETHER, have fun, and be better. This 3 week event will be extra work for the gym and it's WORTH IT! Please remember we're providing this for community fun & benefit so please honor us by simply participating! Stay POSITIVE and join us! YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID, TRUST US!
SCHOLARSHIPS:
- Because we believe the $20 online registration fee and $15 shirt fee shouldn't prevent anyone from participating that wants to, CrossFit AllStar is giving away 3 x $35 scholarships for registration and shirt fee for the 2021 CrossFit Open.
- Because Peahi Education Group (PEG) continues to amaze us with their support for our gym community, they also want to offer 3 x $35 scholarships for registration and shirt fee for the 2021 CrossFit Open.
- That means there are 6 full scholarships available for online registration and shirt fee! IF YOU ARE IN NEED SIMPLY BE ONE OF THE FIRST 6 TO TEXT 'CF OPEN SCHOLARSHIP' TO KC AT 808-357-7851 and we will get you covered!
Due to our own internal deadlines for productions of the shirts, the DEADLINE TO REGISTER FOR THE CROSSFIT OPEN WILL BE FEBRUARY 19TH.
This will allow enough time to get the team shirts made before the first WOD on March 11.
