Online qualification to be an important step in the Asian CrossFit Championship

A sport like crossfit is especially popular in Asia, and especially in China. Shanghai was awarded the right to host the CrossFit Championship on its territory. Many sportsmen immediately became interested in an event of this magnitude. The most interesting question of all future participants was what needs to be done in order to be awarded the right to participate in the CrossFit Tournament.

Online qualification as a core element of eligibility

Asia is considered a very promising market for the development of the sport industry. It was China that was chosen as the venue for the CrossFit Asian Championship in order to develop and increase the interest of Asian peoples in this sport. Future athletes were initially given requirements for participation so that they could reasonably assess their strengths and capabilities. The organizers of the contests announced that every athlete who wants to take part in the CrossFit Championship needs to get a certification level, the winners and prize-winners of which will receive the desired ticket to the world of professional sport.

What is this qualification and why is it needed?

As we have already said, such a level of proficiency is the main and mandatory condition for athletes to participate in the CrossFit Championship. The organizers announced that two divisions will be available in such qualification – individual division and team division. After registering for such an online qualification and passing it, the winners and prize-winners of the TOPs will have the opportunity to compete in the CrossFit Championship.

Individual and team qualification division

The organizers stated that athletes have the opportunity to register simultaneously in both individual and team groups. The group must consist of four people – two male athletes and two women. Individual and team classification implies the same online workouts, but the important point is that before the start of these workouts, the athlete needs to decide in which segment he will compete. This applies to the final competition where one person can only compete in one selected division.

Key details of participation

According to the rules, one sportsman can only participate in one selected division – either in the individual or in the team. A person can compete either alone or in a group of 4 people. If initially an athlete was registered in both divisions, in the end he must make a choice in favor of one of the options. If the athlete makes a choice in favor of the individual format, then, accordingly, he leaves the team. The team remains 3 of the 4 right people. In such a situation, the failed group may submit a request to the organizers of the CrossFit Championship for a possible replacement of one person. The organizers may approve such a request, but a substitution can only be made for a sportsman who has not registered in the individual format.
