2023 CrossFit Season Rulebook Most Important Changes

1.08 – OPEN REGISTRATION – REGION SELECTION

“During the registration process, athletes will provide information to establish their competitive region for the Open. Athletes will remain assigned to this region throughout the competition season.”

This means that the athletes will be placed in regional competitions purely based on their citizenship. There will be seven regions in the 2023 Season, which are:

  • North America East
  • North America West
  • Europe
  • Oceania
  • Asia
  • South America
  • Africa

1.11 – OPEN REGISTRATION – ADAPTIVE DIVISIONS

“There are 16 divisions* for adaptive athletes. Any athlete wishing to compete in an adaptive division will be able to select their division as part of the registration process. There are no age-division cutoff dates in the adaptive divisions, but competitors must be at least 14 years old as of July 14, 2022.”

1.13 – OPEN REGISTRATION – TEAMS

“Any athlete wishing to register a team or compete as part of a team must first register as an individual athlete. The athlete who registers the team will be designated as the team manager for the competition season. Team managers will create a team, pay the registration fee, and select athletes to join the team through their CrossFit Account Competition Dashboard. Athletes can also join their affiliate’s team from their own Competition Dashboard.”

Teams will also consist of at least two men and women between the ages of 16-54.

1.26 – CROSSFIT GAMES LEADERBOARD – RANKING

During the Open, athletes are ranked on the leaderboard based on their total placement in all events. For example, an athlete with 2nd place,
3rd place and 5th-place event finishes will have 10 total points (2+3+5=10) and be ranked ahead of an athlete with 1st place, 2nd place and
10th-place finishes in the same three events who would have 13 points (1+2+10=13).

QUARTERFINALS – SELECTING A COMPETITION ROSTER – TEAMS

During the registration process for Quarterfinals, teams will need to declare their Competition Team roster. Team managers can only select
athletes from their Open team roster to move forward on the Competition Team Roster. A Competition Team roster will consist of:

A maximum of six (6) athletes

  • Three (3) men
  • Three (3) women

remaining Semifinal competitions will be operated by other entities that have been officially sanctioned and licensed by CrossFit as part of the CrossFit Games season.

The 2023 Semifinals will take place over three consecutive weekends in May and June (between May 18 and June 4).
