Legal basis

The competition foresees that athletes who have qualified according to the number indicated in point 4 can enter the presential phase. Athletes will receive an e-mail informing them of their admission to the presential phase. They will then have at their disposal the deadline indicated by the competition organisers to confirm or not their presence. In the absence of confirmation, the next classified athlete will automatically have the possibility to participate in the competition.

The confirmation of participation in the event must be accompanied by the payment of the admission fee for the on-site phase.

Together with the confirmation email, the athlete will also receive further information.

The event’s social media pages and website will then provide further news and information on updates, briefings, calendar, check-in, orientation, etc.

The organisers reserve the right to change the location or training of the face-to-face phase depending on the needs of the wods (e.g. bad weather).

All teams will have up to a total of 3 changes prior to the on-site phase (this includes a change of athlete, never the jersey size or team name.
What is chosen at registration will be what will later be handed out and registered at the competition).

The competition establishes that all teams who have paid the registration fee will advance directly to the in-person phase on October 30, 31, and November 1, 2026.

Athletes will receive an email informing them of their admission to the on-site phase.

We repeat: the confirmation of participation in the event must be accompanied by the payment of the admission fee for the presential phase.

Along with the confirmation email, the athlete will also receive further information for the on-site phase.

The event’s social media pages and website will then provide further news and information on updates, briefings, calendar,
check-in, orientation, etc.

The organisers reserve the right to change the venue or training for the face-to-face phase depending on the needs of the wods (e.g. bad weather).
All teams will have up to a total of 3 changes prior to the on-site phase (this includes a change of athlete, never a change of jersey size or team name). What is chosen at registration will then be handed out and recorded at the competition.

To be admitted to the Basque CrossFit Txapelketa, the athlete must:

• Have reached the legal age at the time of participation in the competition or be authorized by their legal guardians by submitting a signed authorization form from at least one legal guardian.

• Accept the official rules, including the liability waiver and personal data processing policy.

• Use the registration platform in accordance with the indicated terms and pay the registration fee, once qualification has been confirmed. The registration fee includes admission to the competition and the athlete competition kit.

• The online qualifier (for categories with prize money) must be considered provisional until all invited athletes to the final stages have confirmed their participation. If one or more invited athletes decline their spot in the final phase, new invitations will be sent based on the ranking results. Therefore, some athletes initially excluded may be invited at a later stage.

• During registration, the athlete will have the option to purchase a cancellation insurance policy for €5. Registration fees will only be refunded if this insurance has been purchased and only in cases of force majeure (e.g., an injury preventing the athlete from participating). The only exception where the registration fee will be refunded without insurance is in the case of pregnancy.

• Once the registration fee has been paid, both for the online qualifier and for access to the final, refunds will not be possible unless the cancellation insurance has been purchased.

During registration, the athlete will have the option to purchase a refund guarantee for €5. The registration fee will only be refunded if this guarantee has been purchased and only in cases of force majeure (e.g., an injury that prevents the athlete from participating). The only exception where the registration fee will be refunded without purchasing the guarantee is in the case of pregnancy.

The refund guarantee must be purchased no later than 7 days after the registration period has closed.

For teams, the refund guarantee is purchased per person. Only the injured athlete will receive the refund, not the entire team.

If the remaining team members are unable to attend and cannot recover their registration fee, they may request the athlete pack.

The athlete pack cannot be exchanged once it has been delivered. The size you select will be the one you receive.

Exchanges will only be allowed if sizes are still available at the end of the event. If the requested size is not available, the t-shirt must be purchased at an additional cost. We therefore recommend choosing your size carefully.

Additionally, this year you will have the option to complete your equipment for an additional fee. In this case, you will be able to request size exchanges and, if the requested size is not available on the day of the competition, it will be shipped to you as soon as possible.

IMPORTANT: Remember that the athlete pack must be requested at the time of registration.

• The organisation reserves the unquestionable and inalienable right to accept or reject the registration of an athlete. The organisation also reserves the exclusive right
  to validate or invalidate the scores of an athlete.
• Basque Crossfit Txapelketa will be doping free for another year and those athletes who test positive, apart from not being able to access the monetary prize, will have to
  expose themselves to the penalties that Crossfit determine

In order to participate in the event, the athlete confirms through his/her registration in Wodbuster Arena that he/she fully and completely agrees with the rules and guidelines set out in these regulations.

At the same time, insisting on the acceptance of the same, once arrived at the on-site phase, he/she will sign again in situ or via Whatsapp the acceptance to the competition and the minors will accept adding to the same the authorization of their legal guardians.

The workouts (in the data sheet attached to the videos) include:

• Required movements
• Performance points of each movement (the athlete must know the performance points of each movement called ‘lower and upper position’)
• Number of repetitions required.
  Equipment used must be standard:

– Barbell, discs and any other items in kg (if using weights in pounds, the accepted tolerance in conversion is 0.5 kg over or under).

Time available.
Method of scoring.
Variations of movement.
Guidelines for video recording.

Modification of the qualification training is strictly prohibited and constitutes invalidation of the entire video test.

It is absolutely forbidden to change the standard of movement or to modify the range of motion of an exercise. Therefore, any movement that is considered unusual, out of the ordinary or used to shorten or modify the prescribed movement will be penalised. The organisers reserve the right to request any documentary evidence to be provided by the athlete.

It is the sole responsibility of the athlete to ensure that the score is entered within the time defined by the training deadline. Any incomplete entries cannot be considered. The organisation reserves the right to modify the deadline.

The results of the training sessions will be corrected according to the method presented in the Judge Course 2023:

Good video: the video is free of penalties.
Valid with penalties: these will be counted in the score by subtracting the non-reps from the result. If the score is determined by the execution time, this will be increased by the value of the no rep given.
Invalid: the athlete has not performed the training as prescribed, has added an unacceptable number of non-reps, or the video cannot be evaluated due to framing.

The decision of the refereeing body is final.

The date, venue and logistical information will be communicated through the event’s social media pages and website. Athletes are obliged to check-in in accordance with the communications that will be provided through these channels in the manner and time indicated, providing the documentation that will be requested.

In the event that an athlete requires or needs medical assistance during training, he/she must obtain clearance from the medical team to continue the competition. It is at the discretion of the doctor or the organisation to withdraw an injured athlete from
la competición.

The organisers reserve the right to determine the categories and positions for which prize money will be awarded.

In case of a tie, the Games Rules shall apply (considering the best position achieved by the athlete with respect to the best result in each individual event). If this regulation does not determine the winner, the youngest athlete will be awarded the victory and, in case of equal age, the athlete who has entered the competition first (date and time of registration) will be the winner.

The competent company for this section in 2026 will be Alpha Competition Services.
During all phases of the competition the performances of the athletes are checked by one or more judges appointed by the organisation. The judges evaluate the participants on the basis of the prescribed tests in accordance with the criteria and movement standards indicated before the start of the event.

The competition director or chief judge is the person responsible for the
direction of the event and is the subject of reference for any question concerning the
events.

The participant undertakes to behave in a fair and sporting manner: manipulations and attempts to cheat, disruptive or obstructive behaviour, violent discussions and offensive comments, or any other behaviour aimed at offending, abusing or damaging the image of the Basque Crossfit
Txapelketa or of the organisation and the volunteers involved in it will be sanctioned by the competition director with the exclusion from the competition of the author of the sanctioned behaviour. Basque Crossfit Txapelketa reserves the right to act in the competent legal offices for the recovery of any damages.

Any unsportsmanlike conduct and any possible attitude aimed at harming the organisation, participants, sponsors, spectators and others present or to prevent other competitors from participating in the competition in a fair and correct manner are also punishable with penalties in the classification. The decisions of the organisers or the director are final and not subject to appeal.

IMPORTANT: All participants of the Basque Crossfit Txapelketa must know that, according to the current legislation (art. 1 of the Law 12/2021 of June 21st, against doping in the Basque Country), they can be subjected to doping controls during the competition.
