This is a small overview of the CrossFit Games Open and how it all began.
2007 – The first ever CrossFit Games take place in Aromas, CA. The ranch where the Games are held is the family property of Dave Castro’s parents. Anyone who wants to can register to compete.
2009 – The first year of qualifiers. Individual athletes must compete and qualify on a regional level before advancing to the Games. Team competition, however, is still first come first serve.
2011 – CrossFit innovates an internet based competition for spots at Regional competitions. The OPEN is created. The Open is a worldwide competition, taking place over 5 weeks. Top 60 athletes make it to Regionals. Top 3 from Regionals (2 from Canada) make it to the games. Top 30 teams make it to Regionals, top 2 in Canada make it to the games.
2015 – The Open introduced a scaled category to compliment the RX division. This allowed more access for every single member in the box to be able to take part. Super Regionals was also created. Number is cut from 60 athletes, to top 20 from each region make it from the Open and Teams are cut from top 30, to the top 15.
2016 – The Open starts on Thursday, February 25th. Same concept, scaled and RX divisions. At the end of the 5 weeks, the top 20 individual athletes qualify for regionals, and the top 15 teams. We are located in Canada East and are paired with North East. Together we are labeled the EAST region.
Every Thursday night, at 8:00pm over the next 5 weeks, Dave Castro will be announcing the Open workouts. They are labelled based on order and the year. 16.1 means the first workout (1) of 2016 (16). All the workouts are labeled the same way. That’s why when you look back and see 11.1, 13.2, 14.5 etc., it’s how they keep track.
