Welcome to March Madness: Tiot vs. 617!

 Join us on March 23rd as we co-host the Inaugural Event of our Affiliate Cup Series with CrossFit 617. This event will be the first of its kind in the world of CrossFit Competitions. Bringing together two community driven CrossFit Affiliates to throw down in a supportive yet competitive environment. 

What Is The Affiliate Cup?

On the top level, this competition will be a Same Sex (MM and FF) Partner Style Competition with two skill levels: Scaled & RX. We will crown a team champion on the day for each of the 4 separate divisions with prizes. However, at the core of this competition lies another battle between our two gyms. The partner performances will contribute to an overall ‘Affiliate Score’ that will accumulate throughout the day based on the performances of the Partner Teams. There will be two scoring systems on the day. One will keep track of the Partner Competitions standings while the other will keep track of the overall Gym vs. Gym Score.

How will We Do This?

The Partner Competition will play out as is typical at competitions. For the Affiliate vs. Affiliate Scoring, we will use a system similar to a traditional Track Meet to determine the winning Affiliate. So, know that your performance in just one event can play a huge part in helping our Affiliate claim the cup! If you’re in the boat of, “Oh I’m not gonna sign up because I’m not gonna win anyways,” get rid of that thinking! We need numbers and we need y’all to step up in areas that you can shine - specifically for this next part…

What’s About The Affiliate Cup?

The Affiliate Cup will feature a trio of new style workouts sandwiched in on the day. Instead of your classic floater event, we will have 3 AFFILIATE FLOATERS. These floaters will be in the style of a relay or group/team-focused event where we will nominate 10 or so people to participate to represent our gym. Each Floater will be in a different style and to participate in the floaters, you must either be signed up as a COMPETITOR or a VOLUNTEER.

These floaters will highlight specific skill sets of our member base. Everything from double unders, to running, rowing, skiing, heavy lifting, fancy gymnastics, etc will be on the table. Each event we will nominate a new member from our gym roster to participate to represent us in the floater event. The beauty of these floaters is that they also contribute to the overall Affiliate Score, so we expect everyone to bring their A game and put their specific skills on display. Here is an example of a relay style event you MIGHT see:

7 Men and 7 Women from each Affiliate are nominated by coaches for the Following:

250m Run (male)
100 Double Unders (male)
500m Bike Erg (male)
40 Wall Balls (male)
30 Toes To Bar (male)
20 Cal Echo Bike (male) 
10 Bar Muscle Ups (male)
10 Bar Muscle Ups (female)
20 Cal Echo Bike (female)
30 Toes To Bar (female)
40 Wall Balls (female)
500m Bike Erg (female)

How to Get Involved?

That part is easy, sign up for the partner competition here. If you want to be a part of the fun and just want to volunteer, you can do so here as well. Signing up as a volunteer will also allow you to participate in the affiliate events.  We need everyone to come out for this one since this is a representation of Tiot and all that we are. At the end of the day this is going to be one of those days you do not want to miss. And if we take home some hardware that’s just and added bonus!

Let's go!
