Crossfit Vital Newcomer's Open

CrossFit Vital is excited to announce it’s first annual Newcomer’s Open CrossFit Competition. This event will be held March 1, 2014. The day long competition will test athletes proficiencies of CrossFit movements and introduce them to the stressors of competition.

Our Motivation for the Event
1) To introduce up and coming athletes who are “Newcomers” to the competitive side of CrossFit. This event will be open to all athletes who have not previously competed in a CrossFit competition.

2) Introduce athletes to the arena of competition against fellow newcomer athletes to competitive CrossFit.

3) Allow athletes to experience the feeling of competition outside of their box, allowing for invaluable insight into their own competitive CrossFit journey where improvements can be made.

4) Have a great time and bring the CrossFit community closer and stronger.

What CFV views as a CrossFit competition: Entry fee required for participation, assigned judges to athletes, athletes had a tallied score and winners were designated at the end of the event.

Examples of this:
Red Dirt CrossFit Classic
Fittest in OK
Heart of America Affiliate Team Competition
Regionals

-If you have competed in any of these or similar competitions you are NOT eligible to compete in the Newcomer’s Open.
