Games of the Ages, Masters Team Competition is Back!

Back by popular demand, the Cynergy CrossFit, Games of the Ages (GOA), Masters Team Competition will be held Sunday, June 25th at Cynergy CrossFit in Hanson, MA.

We’ve added a couple other elements to this year’s competition.

  1. The first one is near and dear to our hearts… our pets. We wanted to use this opportunity to highlight the organizations and individuals that rescue and support senior cats and dogs. Therefore, we will be donating a portion of our event profits to support those efforts. Please stay tuned for more information!
  2. The second is sponsorship opportunities to help defray the costs of running the event and increase the amount we can contribute to our 4-legged seniors.

The GOA is a 4-person team event that consists of 2 females and 2 males with the combined average age that fits into one of these 3 categories:

  • 30 Somethings: 35-42
  • 40 Somethings: 43-50
  • 50 Somethings: 51+

All levels welcome

Out intent is to open this event to everyone and therefore have designed the workouts to accommodate all levels. This event is a competition, but it’s also an opportunity for us to come together and enjoy the day. If you are unable to perform one of the required movements, you may scale the movement, however doing so will remove your team from medaling at the event. We don’t want to exclude anyone who is interested in participating, so please don’t let any of the movements prevent you from signing up!

WODS: We will be announcing the workouts over the next couple weeks, so start recruiting your team members and join us!

Before you begin

There is a bit of coordination involved with this event, so we have some guidelines that should help you — and us — make this a much easier process.

  • Designate one person to register and pay for the whole team.
  • Include all team member’s names, age (by 6.25.23), gender, t-shirt type and size, and contact information (team chart info sample).
  • Include your team name and identify your team captain. This person will be the point of contact for the team.
  • All team members must complete a waiver and bring the signed copy with them to registration — with the exception of the athlete who registered.
  • Payment is done through Cynergy’s PayPal account. You do not need a PayPal account to make a payment. Simply choose the Pay with Debit or Credit Card option (see sample).

If you are experiencing issues, you can submit your payment to Cynthia Brown’s Venmo account @Cynthia-Brown-405. Please indicate “GOA + your team name”.

No team? No Problem!

If you would like to join us and don’t have a full team, please select “Please add me to a team” under Team Status on the registration from. We will do our best to connect you with a team. If we can’t find you a team and you’d like a refund, we are more than happy to do that for you. Otherwise, you can keep the shirt (if you register by June 2nd) and we can donate your registration fee to support the senior animals in our community.

We need your help

Running these events is a team sport and we cannot do this alone! Therefore, we are asking for your help…

Become a Sponsor$250. Please consider sponsoring the event. We will announce your company or individual name on our website and social media pages as well as include you on our event shirts. If you want to be included on the shirt, we request that we receive your logo/name by June 2nd.

Donate a Product or Service — Please consider donating a product or service to help us fill the winner’s goody bags! You could donate the actual bag itself! We will offer specific gifts to our (4) first place winners and would like to provide some additional prizes to our second and third place winners.  Examples include: Champagne, gift cards for a massage, restaurant or coffee, etc.)

Be a Judge — Please consider being one of the judges for the event. We request that you have experience being a judge at previous CrossFit competitions and are comfortable with “no-repping” an athlete if they do not meet the stated standards. Be prepared to attend a judge’s meeting 1 day prior to the event. Please note that this is a request, we will reach out to you if selected.

Be a Volunteer — Help us run the event which includes setting up and moving equipment, assisting with registration, running the score cards and other tasks. Please expect to arrive at least an hour before registration opens and stay an hour after the event to help with clean up.
