Only 5 Days Away!

Sectional Weekend for Central Southern Texas is finally here – We are less than 5 days away from the event! Below are some important details that everyone should know. Spectators & Volunteers will be receiving more information this week on what to expect at the CSTS!

  • 1. BE PREPARED

This event will be held on Camp Mabry – a military base. This means EVERYONE will be checked by photo ID at the entrance gate. The guards WILL NOT let you on base, under any circumstances, without a photo ID. This goes for everyone traveling in your vehicle over the age of 16. Every car will be stopped for ID check each morning so allow enough time to travel to Camp Mabry, get through the ID check point, and park.

  • 2. Rules from Camp Mabry

You are not allowed to bring alcohol or a concealed weapon onto the base, even if you have a license, no exceptions.

  • 3. Maps, Directions, Parking

Once you enter the gate you will see directional signs that will guide you into the event area.

Curious about the Affiliate Cup?

From the CrossFit.Com Games Website

Rules:
At the Regional level, an Affiliate Team must consist of a minimum of four to a maximum of six athletes. The team needs to have a minimum of two men and two women. All members of the team must actively train at the same facility, which does not have to be an official CrossFit affiliate gym.

At the Regional level, all the workouts will be conducted as team workouts with teams of four. Two men and two women will be competing at one time as a team. This will allow team captains or coaches to substitute members prior to an event based on team members’ individual strengths and weaknesses.

There is only one team permitted per gym. We recommend having tryouts and competitions within your affiliate to determine your team of four to six athletes. But that is just a recommendation. The team itself qualifies, which means teams that qualify for the Games can make changes to their roster between the Regionals and the Games.

For teams that qualify for the Games, the rules will be slightly different. One key difference is that all teams must send six athletes, three men and three women, to Aromas. A non-participating coach is still optional.

An equal number of team spots and individual spots are allocated to each Regional. For example, if your Regional allocation for individual spots is 4 men and 4 women, there are 8 team spots allocated. Last year’s champs, Northwest CrossFit, are prequalified and invited to the Games in Aromas.

There will be no team competition at the Sectional qualifiers. Team registration at the Regional will be open (first come, first served). There will be no open registration for individuals at the Regionals (everyone must qualify). This does not apply to the Master’s competition, details of which will be coming shortly.

Registration is not currently open for the Regionals in any way. We will open team registration in a few weeks. We will give you plenty of notice before it happens.

Registration for the CSTS is Open
