January 16, 2024

CrossFit

Congratulations to the 300 CrossFit athletes crowned 2023 National Champions. 

The Fittest on Earth. This title wouldn’t exist without the international pool of athletes who test their fitness each year.

In 2023, over 322,000 athletes from around the world competed in the 2023 NOBULL CrossFit Games Open, the largest international sporting event in history. From there, the competitors were whittled down to the fittest few through Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and finally, the CrossFit Games.

In the end, 300 CrossFit athletes stood apart. They were the fittest athletes in their countries and were crowned the 2023 National Champions. 

You can represent your country in the 2024 CrossFit Games Open. Register today at Games.CrossFit.com for a chance to become a 2024 National Champion. 

REGISTER FOR THE 2024 OPEN

 

HOW IT WORKS

Every athlete who signs up for the Open is ranked against all other athletes within their country, and the man and woman who make it the furthest in the CrossFit Games season are crowned their country’s national champions. 

If multiple athletes finish in the same stage, the athlete who ranks higher on the leaderboard in that stage is awarded the title.

HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

CrossFit first started crowning national champions in 2015, but the title was given to the athlete with the best Open result in each country. In 2019, a national champion title meant a ticket to the CrossFit Games. Now, the athlete who makes it the furthest in the season is awarded the title.
