We are pleased to announce our CrossFit Shropshire Intramural Open 2025, right here in Shrewsbury.
Every year, CrossFit HQ runs an event called “The CrossFit Open“. As always, we take the idea and make it our own. We’re not interested in finding out how fast you can exercise against 400,000 other people worldwide.
We ARE interested in helping you push to new levels in fitness, level up your life, and get 1000 high fives from the CrossFit Shropshire family.
-Can we bring that worldwide thrill home?
-Can we deliver all the fun of competition without causing any anxiety attacks?
We think so.
The Intramural Open is our annual tradition at CrossFit Shropshire. We first started doing this back in 2020, during lock down. This is how it works; we’ll divide the gym into two teams, each with a Team Captain and a funny name.
You can earn points for your team by participating, doing well in an event, and showing the most spirit during events.
After three weeks of intense, novel workouts, we’ll reveal the Mystery Event Four; a fun action-packed event that may include a post-workout BBQ.
How the Intramural Open Works
-Weekly workouts (completed in Classes or your PT sessions)
-4 weeks duration.
-Weeks 1-3 are programmemed by the CrossFit Games and Alex. These are international workouts and will be completed by our international CrossFit friends.
-Week 4 is programmemed by the CrossFit Shropshire Coaching team and is a fun team event.
-Week 4 ends with a post workout BBQ
This great event will be extra accountability and excitement for you to come to the gym and workout. I am very much looking forward to taking part as well as coach my team!
