Intramural CFI Open 2024
There will be 3 teams that compete for the best score where points are awarded to teams based on various factors, not just performance.
Captains of each team will consist of one coach and one member. Members are not chosen based on their expected Open finish, but those who have the most fun in the gym
Each team is randomly selected. You will need to sign up for the CrossFit open at https://games.crossfit.com/open/overview to compete in out in the intramural CFI open. The dates for the open is February 29th – March 18th.
