Welcome to The Program Training Pairs Throwdown brought to you by The Program training.
This exciting new compeititon aims to bring a challenging, community driven event to the heart of Welwyn Garden city, hosted at the brand new The Training Zone (TTZ CrossFit) facility!
What can I expect from the event?
On the day every team will battle through a minimum of 3 scored events testing a variety of skills, movements and time domains. The goal? Find the top 3 female and 3 male teams on the day! On top of this you'll find various vendors plus coffee, snacks and other refreshments to keep you fuelled on the day.
What experience do I need?
This event will be accessible to most. Regardless of your experience and skill level you will be able to compete and will be challenged on the day! Any higher skill movements will have scaling options and a points system will be used if needed. Weights will either be chosen by the teams individually or will again be accessible.
Who's behind it?
The Program Training Pairs Throwdown is the brainchild of The Program Training and it's coaches, who have been in the community for 15+ years with numerous years of planning and running events similar to this right here in the UK.
What's next?
Grab a ticket! After that all you will need to do is add your partner to your team here on Throwdown Hub then sit back and relax. More information will follow in coming weeks.
We hope to see you at The Training Zone for what's going to be an electric event this August!
