This is just another chance to #getbetterthanyesterday on the competition floor.

HERCFIT INVITATIONAL 2015

Prairie CrossFit is partnering with the Hercules Weightlifting Club to hold an Olympic Lifting Competition specifically for CrossFitters! We will have prizes, there will be music and there will definitely be PR’s too!

COMPETITION INFORMATION

Date: Sunday, December 13, 2015

Place: Prairie CrossFit

Lifts: Snatch - Clean & Jerk. You will have 3 attempts at each lift and your score is the highest combined total. 

This event will be run by official Manitoba Weightlifting Association (MWA) judges, however they will be lenient on some of the rules enforced in regular sanctioned meets. 15 minutes before the competition the MWA's official chairman will give a review of the rules & regulations. The exact format of the meet will be determined closer to the competition date once all lifters have been registered. 

For this competition only, you DO NOT have to be a Manitoba Weightlifting Association Registered Lifter but we encourage people to consider purchasing a 2015/16 MWA membership. Forms can be found at http://mbweightlifting.net/membership/

You do not need to wear a singlet.

Weigh-ins and weight class categories will be used, as will the Sinclair Co-efficient for scoring. Weigh-ins will be 1 hour prior to lifting. 

The Hercules club will be providing a coach for each affiliate that has a team. They will help coach your athletes through the event and prepare them for their lifts.

Cost: $25/lifter

There will be prizes for Best Female lifter, Best Male lifter and Best Team. In order for your team to qualify for prizing, you need to have 3 males and 3 females registered.

ALL TEAMS need to be registered by NOVEMBER 22. There will be a limited number of spots open for this comp, so it will be a first come first serve basis. So get your teams/lifters together quick and send the info in.
