Individual

Scaled/Novice

Athletes should select this division if they are traditionally a scaled athlete in the CrossFit Open. All movements and standards will mimic that which you would commonly see in a typical Open competition.

Athletes 1-50 from the scaled category will be invited to compete in the 3 day event in June, pending video submission and validation.
The next 50 will be invited to compete in the Novice division. Both divisions will be eligible for sponsored prizes.

Granite Bay

Granite Bay Main Beach is the site for the 2025 Northern California Classic. It's home to a network of trails, a massive water front, and is an ideal location to test the region's fittest athletes. We've updated the map, courses and where the festival will take place.

Please note that this is a State Park that NCC is permitted to use. All trash must be packed out to preserve the natural landscape of the park and ensure its future use. Please bring plenty of water and any shade structures you may need.

I want to be sponsor or vendor for NCC?

That's awesome! We hope to have as many local vendors as we can, since the park space is limited we do ask you submit a vendor request for or sponsor form on the "Sponsors" page of the website.
