"Helen"

Coach Mike Minium out of CrossFit Oakland sent us info on the sectionals.  On March 6 there is a throwdown we can attend at CrossFit East Bay.  I recommend we participate and test our CrossFit status on March 6.  Because of our Anniversary BBQ we will NOT be able to make the OAKLAND Feb, 20 throwdown.

Here is Mike with the 411:

"Hello All,

Because we don't have a dedicated blog for the NorCal
Sectionals this year (everything goes through the Games site), I wanted
to take an opportunity to bring you all up to date on things related to
the NorCal Sectionals that will be taking place March 27-28 at Mitty
High School in San Jose. 


Please pass this along to any affiliates you know who are not on my list (I'm sure there are many).

In no particular order, here are a few updates.

Competitor Counts

As of today, there are now 239 males and 106 females registered.  It's gonna be a big field!


Volunteer Counts

As of today, we have 89 volunteers. 
We really, really need as much help as we can get on the volunteer
front.  If you know anyone who can be of help to us (whether they're
trainers or clients), please have them register as volunteers on the
Games site here:  http://tinyurl.com/yaf3cuu


You can also have them contact me directly at mike.minium@crossfitoakland.com with any questions about volunteering.

Upcoming Events

We
have two throwdowns planned, one at CrossFit Oakland on Saturday, Feb
20 at 11am, and one at CrossFit East Bay on Saturday, March 6 at 11am.


Both of these will be individual competitions, in preparation for
the Sectionals.  It will be a great opportunity for you and your
athletes to test their training heading into the Sectionals.  And as
with all CF-related events, it will be a great opportunity to get to
hang out with other members of this great community.


If you're not going to be at the Affiliate Gathering, I hope you
can make it out to our gym at CrossFit Oakland this Saturday.  We'll be
posting the workout details on our blog (http://crossfitoakland.com) this Wednesday (that's tomorrow).


There will be many more team-oriented throwdowns planned after the
Sectionals, in preparation for the Regionals.  Please contact me if
you're interested in hosting one of the throwdowns.

That's it for now.  Looking forward to a great NorCal competition at the end of March!


Please let me know if you have any questions about the Sectionals."

I'm confused? No throwdown on the 20th?

[Judd]

We WILL have OUR Smackdown on the 20TH at the SV Box. We will NOT attend the Oakland throwdown since it is on the same day.

Cool. Thanks for clarifying.

I'm on for 3/6 in Oakland, and ready to go for 2/20 at the Box!!
