This year's event will be much like last years, with two days of competition in 3 divisions.  Day one will be the qualifying day, expect a full day of well rounded tests of your fitness and skills.  Day two will be the finals for the top 1/3rd of the teams in each division. 

The open division is just that, OPEN and will be filled with Cali's best fitness competitors.  The novice is defined as 1st year competitors will feature some of the best up and comers in the region.  If you competed in last year's STTD you are out, but if your first competition was the CF Games Open 2012, you still qualify as a novice for this competition.  Last but far from least is the masters division which is defined as 40 years of age or older on January 26th 2013.  Of course we know that NorCal boasts some of the best masters athletes in the world.

The event will be held at the same venue as last year, the Placer County Fairgrounds in Roseville.  Lets hope for good weather and expect to see some of the world's best athletes throwing it down!

Pre-Registration is open now to invited teams who are committing to fielding teams in all 3 divisions.  3 team price is at $700 ($60 per athlete.)
