CrossFit® Games

Qualification for the CrossFit® Games is a three-stage process: first the Open, then the Regionals, and finally the Holy Grail: the Games.

The road to the CrossFit® Games begins with the World Open, the world’s largest participatory sporting event. During the three weeks of competition, one event is posted online each Thursday, and athletes have four days to record and submit their scores. Everyone can take part in the Open – there’s really no limit to participation, whether you’re 14 or 84, new to the sport or even if your CrossFit® center is closed, you can still take part thanks to the various categories, including this new one: No Gear!

Through the different WODs you will perform several movements: weightlifting, gymnastics, body weight, … which will allow you to identify your weaknesses. By taking part in the various editions of the CrossFit® Open, you can compare your performance with the previous year. This will allow you to see your progress.

Simply put, the Open is an open competition that takes place all over the world. It’s a true fitness test that highlights everything we love about CrossFit®: Community, hard work, progress, records and camaraderie.

If you pass the Open qualifiers, you can take part in the Regionals, which take place over 3 weekends in May and June. Several regions are grouped together, forming 8 groups, and their best athletes compete for the 5 qualifying places in each group for the CrossFit® Games.

Once qualified, all you have to do is continue to train to be ready for the big day when the tests are announced…

This year’s CrossFit® Games will take place from August 4 to 7. You can follow them live on YouTube, on the CrossFit® channel.
