Save the date!!!

The 7th annual MBS CrossFit Turkey Challenge is drawing near. Registration is planned to open Thursday and Friday, September 19th & 20th for teams and individuals. If you’ve been around, you know it sells out quickly….The competition is on November 18-20th.

As in year’s past, we will have Pro and Open Individuals and Teams. The Pro spots are limited, and it’s generally required that all athletes can do muscle ups, HSPU’s, and heavier weights…including all athletes of the team (see last year’s load list).

Last year we had a master’s team division kick things off for us on Friday night. We are considering doing it again and would love to hear your feedback if that and/or a teens division would be something worth giving a shot??

Possibility of moving the location???

We are considering moving the venue from it’s home of the last 6 years at the hangar, to larger venue that will offer us some protection from the weather and convenience to our MBS family that is left picking up the mess after every year’s competition. Don’t worry though…the TC will never lose that “original grit” sort of feeling that we’ve always had and makes our competition unique. We will still rock some awesome programming that is sure to test the mental and physical limits of our competitors.

New Title Sponsor???

This year, Nutriforce Sports, changed ownership and we lost our commitment with them to the TC in the process. We are currently looking for Title Sponsorship of the event, which helps fund our Pro athletes purse. We hope to have awesome news for any athletes gunning for top spots.

Lots of changes, but same TC

There you have it…first post of 2016 for the TC. Registration is 6 weeks away. Ready your teams and rally your gym for another awesome year.

We will be posting updates about registration, locations, and other details in the following places:
