(Saturday Open workouts are free for all participants, CFBG members, or community CrossFitters wanting to participate in the OPEN. Even if you’re not registered for the CrossFit Open or Bluegrass Team Style Open you can still workout!)
Can’t make it on Saturday? No problem, just have someone from an opposing team judge that week’s workout at another time and record your score in Wodify!
Don’t know what the OPEN is?
The CrossFit Games Open is comprised of 3 workouts over 3 weeks, and will begin with 21.1 announced on March 11th. Open workouts are identified by their year and the order in which they appear. The workouts will be released every Thursday during the Open, and you can watch the live announcement of the workout that will be streamed on the CrossFit Games website. These workouts will have RX, scaled, masters, and teen divisions to choose from each week along with an equipment and non-equipment option. After the workout is released, any athlete who has registered for the Open will have until 5 p.m. on the following Monday to complete the workout and submit a score.

FAQ:
• Although registration for the Official CrossFit Open is not required to participate in the Bluegrass Team Style Open, you are welcome to officially register on the CrossFit Games site to see where you stand in the worldwide Open!
• Pre-register on Wodify for one of the 3 Saturday morning classes and each class will warm up together. Everyone will be partnered up with another athlete and one group will complete the workout while the other group judges then we’ll switch.
• ALL submissions for team points must be recorded in Wodify on Saturday’s workout with your judge name in the comments. *If a team member can not complete a workout on Saturday they may perform the workout during any open gym times before the due date. Workout results must still be recorded in Wodify under the Saturday workout to be eligible for the top spots and points for participation.
• All participants only receive one judged attempt.
• Each team has an appointed Team Captain that can help with game day strategy and tips!
• After the 3rd week, the winning team will receive bragging rights and the title of Bluegrass Team Style Open Champs! Coach Jordan’s Team Blue were the champs for the 2019 and Coach Tim’s Team Green won in 2020… who will take it home for the 2021 season??
