CrossFit Inc. today announced three new officially sanctioned events that will lead to invites to the 2020 CrossFit Games. These events expand the 2019-2020 season calendar as outlined in previous event announcements.
Individual and team athletes will take the competition floor at newly sanctioned CrossFit competitions in Dublin, Ireland; Vancouver, Canada; and Quebec, Canada. The champions of the men’s, women’s and team competitions at each event will receive invitations to compete at the 2020 CrossFit Games in Madison, Wisconsin.
