INTRAMURAL OPEN: “FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS”

2020 CrossFit UDX Intramural Open Rules, Scoring, Calendar of Events

Welcome to the CrossFit Open at CrossFit UDX and thank you for signing up! This year the open will begin October 10th which means the first Friday Night Lights will be Oct. 11th! It will run until Friday Nov. 8th.

What to expect:
Every Friday Night we invite you to join us in a celebration of fitness. Each week will have a fun dress up theme as well as a fun challenge to participate in for additional points. Based on numbers, we will split the gym up into 3-4 teams to compete for the "Affiliate Cup". Coached warm-ups will start every Friday evening at 4:30 and the first heat will start at 5:00pm after a short workout briefing.

Heat Sign-ups: Each week Heat Sign-ups will be first come first serve on wodify. Heats will become available 48 hours before the workouts on Friday night. We will also require you to judge the heat after your heat or else find a judge to fill your spot (ask a coach or another member). If you cannot make it to the Friday Night Lights, we will be doing the Open workouts as our normal programming every Friday as well during normal scheduled class sessions.

Make-up workouts: Make-up workouts are accepted as long as an opposing team judge verifies your score. You must get your scores in by Tuesday evening the following week. Everyone gets ONE ATTEMPT AT A WORKOUT unless something goes horribly wrong (you are injured, your jump rope breaks, you lift so much your snap your barbell etc…) so MAKE IT COUNT!

For those registering for the ACTUAL open: We will staff validated judges for all of those registered for the open as well. Register at: https://games.crossfit.com/
