2025 CrossFit Open

/in /by

Whether 2025 is your first ever Open or your 12th, it is a terrific test of your current capabilities. Each year Seaward CrossFit reviews our Open processes and strives to make it a better experience for everyone. We have made a few changes to the way we run the event which should help with the organization and planing to make it as smooth as possible.

The biggest change would be to the judging. It is now the athlete’s responsibility to organize a judge prior to the workout. With more and more participants each year, it has become too challenging for us to organize judges for every participant, in every heat. Each Seaward member has access to the built-in Wodify chat feature so it should be pretty straightforward to contact fellow classmates or friends to ask them to judge you. If you require a judge, it would be a great gesture to pay it back and judge someone else.

It is recommended to complete the 2025 Judges Course but it isn’t a requirement. It is the athlete’s and the judge’s responsibility to understand the workout flow and movement standards before completing each workout. The workouts and movement standards are all available here https://games.crossfit.com/workouts/open/2025

Make the most of our Thursday workshops where Coach Nicole reviews the workout and shares her tips and tricks. We had a wonderful turnout tonight so thank you to those who attended.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us here.

Thank you and all the best!
