You can sign-up for our qualifiers via Competition Corner. Use your existing account or create one. Registration for the 2022 Qualifiers will open on 8 April

No worries, making a mistake could happen to any of us! Send us an email to explain the issue and we will correct your registration at the back end.

Your age, as you have during the finals on 3 & 4 September 2022 will determine the age category during the Qualifiers. You will automatically be added to the correct age categorie based on your date of birth, as submitted upon registration.

Upon registration you can only sign up for Rx'd. But no worries! It works just similar as in The Open. All Qualifier workouts have 2 versions: Rx'd & Scaled version. You choose after having read the workout. If you are unable to perform a workout as prescribed, you pick the scaled version. This way more people can measure their performance against each other, for those who wanna play and get real competition vibes. It’s all about the community! How does it work? Athletes may finish with a combination of Scaled and Rx’d workout scores. As long as you perform at least 1 Rx’d workout, you can advance to the Finals, when your final ranking is above the cut. Athletes who performed all 3 workouts in the Scaled version will not be invited for the Finals Leaderboard: athletes who perform a Scaled workout will be ranked relative to all other athletes who performed the Scaled version of that workout, but below all athletes who performed this workout Rx’d. So choose wisely ;-) Any of the below combinations can qualify for the Finals, when ranked above the cut: 3 Rx'd scores 2 Rx'd & 1 Scaled scores 1 Rx'd & 2 Scaled scores Choose wisely & remember: We do not underestimate your age and fitness & neither should you!

No worries! All workouts are accompanied by a scaled version. Athletes who are unable to perform a workout as prescribed can choose the scaled workout. You may finish the Qualifiers with any combination of scaled and prescribed workouts. In doubt what to choose? Our motto is: We don't underestimate your age and fitness. And neither should you! :-) It wouldn't be the first time that athletes set PR's or make their first HSPU, or MU during the qualifiers or at the finals. Challenge yourself.

When you perform a Scaled workout, your score will be ranked relative to all other athletes who performed the Scaled version of that workout, but below all athletes who performed this workout Rx’d. So choose wisely ;-) Can I still go to the Finals? Yes, you can, under these 2 conditions: As long as you perform at least 1 Rx’d workout When your final ranking is above the cut. Any of the below combinations can qualify for the Finals, when ranked above the cut: 3 Rx'd scores 2 Rx'd & 1 Scaled scores 1 Rx'd & 2 Scaled scores If you perform all 3 workouts in the Scaled version you will not be invited for the Finals Choose wisely & remember: We do not underestimate your age and fitness & neither should you!

There will be 1 leaderboard and this is how it works: All workouts are accompanied by a scaled version. Athletes who are unable to perform a workout as prescribed can choose the scaled workout. You may finish the Qualifiers with any combination of scaled and prescribed workouts. A scaled workout score will be ranked relative to all other athletes performing the scaled version of the workout, but below all athletes who performed that workout “as prescribed”.

Yes & no! :-) Having a judge is not mandatory. However.......... We strongly advise to ask the help of a (certified) judge to judge you accurately. He/she can help you to count the reps & make sure you meet the movement standards correctly. This avoids getting a penalty or being disqualified. You don't want someone to just count your (bro) reps. Tip: Follow the official, online Crossfit Judge Course to better understand the position of a judge and/or be a (better) judge yourself for your fellow competitors.
