Alabama Adaptive Games

POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE-will update in April 

"Adaptive CrossFit practices the same fundamental movements of CrossFit, but the strategy and equipment are creatively modified to fit each person’s needs. From an 18-year-old to an 80-year-old, everyone is striving to do the same basic movements, at their best personal intensity level."- https://www.challengedathletes.org/sport-spotlight-adaptive-crossfit/

Welcome to the first annual Alabama Adaptive Games! This is a competition dedicated to adaptive athletes of all capacities to come and participate and compete in a series of workouts.  This competition will have a division for Upper extremity adaptive, lower extremity adaptive, and seated division.  Please describe your functional skill level and any modifications you may need upon registration.  Refunds will be possible up to 24 hours before the event and substitutions will not be allowed.  Parking will be provided outside the gym.  Breakfast, Lunch, and sports drink options will be available for purchase in and around the gym during the competition.
