Ever since Greg Glassman confirmed Regionals and the Invitational were no more, everyone wondered what exactly would take their place. We knew it would be a series of CrossFit-sanctioned events, but we hadn’t yet gotten many more details beyond that. Now, we know. CrossFit announced that the Dubai Fitness Championship will now be known as the Dubai CrossFit Championship, and it’s officially the first CrossFit-sanctioned event ever.
On the heels of the Games, it’s already got athletes thinking ahead to the 2019 competitive season, considering the competition will award an invitation to the Games for the top male, female, and team.
