The 2024 CrossFit Open is nearly upon us!  
The Open will kick off in just 17 DAYS with the announcement of CrossFit Open Workout 24.1!

‍

Here's an overview of what's taking place at the gym during this year’s 3-week CrossFit Open.

‍

WHAT IS THE CROSSFIT OPEN?

• The CrossFit Open is a 3-week, worldwide competition that launches the start of the CrossFit Games Season.  Affiliates and Athletes around the world participate in this competition. Anyone can register to participate at https://games.crossfit.com

• The Open runs from Thursday, February 29th through Monday, March 18th.

• Workouts are announced every Thursday at 3pm EST on the CrossFit Games YouTube Channel  

• Workouts will be programmed for all group classes at Bell City CrossFit on Friday, March 1st, 8th and 15th.

• Anyone who registers to participate will be placed on an In-House Bell City CrossFit Intramural Team to face off against your fellow competitors in a FRIENDLY in-house competition!

‍

FRIDAY GROUP CLASSES:

• We will run our (mostly) normal group class schedule every Friday during the Open, 5:30am, 8:00am, 12:00pm, 4:30pm, 5:30pm, 6:30pm.  

• Please Note: 5:30pm FRIDAY Group Class WILL be a Coach-Led class for these 3-weeks and will NOT be a DIY "Study Hall" hour.

• Friday evenings will feature our "Friday Night Lights" event. Meaning all are welcome to come throw down, spectate, cheer and BYOB from 4:30pm through 7:30pm.

• All Competitors must have a judge to uphold movement standards and count reps.  Judges will be assigned at group class. As an athlete, please make your judge's job easier by understanding and holding yourself to the required movement standards. CrossFit offers a Judge’s Course which is not required, but super helpful for the Open and general understanding!

‍

WEEKLY CHALLENGES:

• You can earn extra credit for your BCCF Intramural Open Team by participating in weekly challenges.  We will announce a THEME every week.  Dress accordingly to earn extra points for your team!

‍

SCORE SUBMISSIONS:

• All Competitors MUST submit their scores via the CrossFit Games website or app BEFORE Monday, 8pm each week.  Your scores will then be validated and Team Scores will be calculated prior to the next workout announcement.
