CrossFit OPEN in Lithuania – Amber CrossFit internal competition

THIS YEAR IS ALREADY THE SECOND CROSSFIT OPEN GLOBAL SPORTS FESTIVAL, AS WELL AS AN OFFICIAL SELECTION FOR THE CROSSFIT GAMES. OFFICIAL ENTRY COMPETITION FOR CROSSFIT OPEN.

INTERNAL AMBER CROSSFIT OPEN COMPETITION!

Well yes…!!! Let’s start again. Even though we said we won’t do the OPEN in the fall, because everyone is still tired and haven’t recovered from the last CrossFit Games season, and anyway, everyone is awfully busy in the fall, but hey… what doesn’t kill us, makes us stronger. Those who have been with us for more than six months really remember the atmosphere when Amber hums to OPEN, and for newcomers some information about the CrossFit festival starting on October 10th. Amber OPEN is:

International celebration of CrossFit sports clubs, during which CrossFit boxes from all over the world perform the same WODs and try to find out who is the strongest. Meanwhile, all the best athletes in the world and countries are trying to win tickets to the CrossFit games!

One of the misconceptions is that the Amber CrossFit indoor OPEN is only for advanced athletes who will fight for the strongest title. Every member of Amber CrossFit can and should participate in the CrossFit OPEN. The OPEN is a great opportunity to experience how strong the CrossFit movement can be, who the real CrossFit community is, and of course, help your team win the BIGGEST Cup in the OPEN Transitional Amber CrossFit Indoor competition.

HOW IT WILL GO:

1. September 18th On the day we open registration for Amber CrossFit’s internal OPEN competition, we hope as many Amber CrossFit members as possible will participate. The goal of this competition is to bring the community together for the premier CrossFit event;
2. After registration opens we will appoint 4 captains who will try to put together the strongest, friendliest and most active OPEN team;
3. The captains will choose the color and name of their team;
4. After announcing the captains and gathering all those who wish to participate, September 27 the day we will carry out the draws for team members. All registered players will be assigned to teams with their respective captains by drawing lots. The captains will be able to bring to the team 3 advisors who will be untouchable and protected 5 athletes, among whom there will be at least 1 CrossFit coach Ambra. All other team members can be recruited to other teams. The official start of recruitment will be September 28th D.
5. There are no rules for recruitment, team captains can recruit members of other teams with various actions and methods that do not contradict the laws of the Republic of Lithuania. The goal is to put together the strongest and most active team possible.
6. To keep the same number of team members, we apply the rule that the team with the most members cannot recruit new members until the difference between the teams with the most and least members is greater than 5. If team “A” has 35 members and team “B” has 30 members, team “A” cannot recruit more members until team “B” reduces the difference. This rule goes into effect when the team reaches the limit of 25 members.

NEW: TO MAKE EVERYTHING A LITTLE MORE INTERESTING AND OBVIOUSLY MORE COMPLICATED… WE WILL SEPARATE THE PARTICIPANTS’ RESULTS INTO THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES: MEN | WOMEN | UNDER 18 | 35 – 39| 40 – 45| 46+ ALL TOP 3 PARTICIPANTS IN THESE CATEGORIES WILL BRING PO TO THEIR TEAMS 5 POINT. A PARTICIPANT CAN COLLECT POINTS IN ONLY ONE CATEGORY.

IMPORTANT: 20.* THE OPEN WOD WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON THURSDAY NIGHT, SO ALL CLASSES WILL BE DESIGNATED FOR THE OPEN WOD ON FRIDAY, ALSO WE WILL ALLOCATE SUNDAYS FOR THIS, BUT MONDAY IS THURSDAY AND WE WILL HAVE NO CLASSES SCHEDULED FOR THIS SATURDAY.

POINT CALCULATION SYSTEM:

Here is the most interesting and mysterious part of the competition. especially for the administration This year in our club we have “Sustainability Leaders” who take care of us and strongly recommend not to print the results sheets but to use our wonderful programs where we can easily summarize the results! So that’s the plan!!!

Each team member will collect points for his team. And the team with the most points will win the OPEN indoor Amber CrossFit competition.

PRELIMINARY EVENT PROGRAM:

There is also the opportunity for each team to design their own team t-shirt featuring the Amber CrossFit and CrossFit OPEN 2019 logo. If you would like to order a t-shirt, please indicate this during registration. Because to anticipate we must place the order as soon as possible.
