The CFS In-House Throwdown is a community building event that we host every year!  Many of you have never competed before and this is a great opportunity to experience a competition environment while having a lot of fun with your friends!  For those of you who love to compete, you can be great role models.  It takes your day to day training up a notch and will push you a little harder than you’d push yourself in class.  This is an opportunity for athletes to get to know fellow members they may have never met and work together with a common goal – putting your best effort in to support your teammate.

Athletes will register individually and the CFS coaches will pair athletes up and make teams of two.
Rx athletes will be paired together and Scaled athletes will be paired together.

All teams will compete in 4 WODs.  All WODs are listed at the bottom of this post.

Please register by Tuesday, October 22nd and we will post all the teams on Saturday, October 26th.

We cannot guarantee a shirt/tank for registrations after 10/22/19.

Event info – 

  • Sunday, 11/10/19
  • Registration opens at 7:30am.  Athlete’s meeting at 8:00am.  First heat goes off at 8:30am.
  • Teams of 2 either male/male or female/female with RX and Scaled Divisions
  • Cost per athlete is $29 (includes t-shirt for men and tank top for women – please specify shirt size when registering)
  • Athletes will register and list their division, RX or Scaled. (Please see the criteria below.) The coaching staff will then pair up the teams accordingly. 
We will need judges along with volunteers for a number of other jobs. If you can only stay for part of the day that’s fine. We’re appreciative of any help you can offer.
(Under registration info please fill in t-shirt size – all volunteers will wear t-shirts.)
We will have a meeting on Friday, November 8th at 6:30pm for all volunteers.
