Start Preparing for NUTTS Cup
If you’ve been here for a year and don’t know what Nutts Cup is then you probably live under a rock.
For those of you who are new to us, here’s a video done by our own BRONTOSAURUS about Nutts Cup – the biggest day at our school all year!
Nutts Cup 2013 video
This year, Nutts Cup will be on August 16th, 2014 – a Saturday. 32 teams, each made up of 2 men and 1 woman, will compete against each other for prestige and prize money.
But before that, we’re having an in-house Nutts Cup qualifier. This will be held on Saturday, June 14th. So get your team ready! Sign up will begin next week at the school. The top 12 teams from CrossFit Vancouver from this qualifier will advance to Nutts Cup. This day will look similar to our two recent in-house competitions we’ve held in recent months.
Don’t fret, if your team doesn’t make the top 12, or you can’t be there on June 14th you still have a chance to compete! On July 2nd, we’ll be opening up registration for the other 18 teams on a first come, first serve basis. This first come first serve will be open to anyone, however – not just teams from our box – so it will fill up fast.
But if you want to get some valuable competition experience with your Nutts Cup team and guarantee yourself a spot, sign-up next week for the June 14th qualifier! We’ll allow up to 30 teams to compete in the qualifier.
