Team ‘CHallenge’
The purpose of the Team CHallenge is to:
- Encourage and develop the CrossFit sense of community within each Affiliate and within Switzerland.
- To promote greater fitness through competition and rivalry between teams within each Affiliate and within Switzerland.
- To allow for and encourage participation of athletes from all levels of fitness and not just the ‘elite’.
- To hold a Team CHallenge on a regular basis, at least once per year.
The rules of the Team CHallenge are as follows:
