We are proud to announce the return of our 6th Annual Battle for the Bell Competition! This year we are looking for several businesses and community organizations to be Sponsors for our upcoming event.

Sponsors help us cover the expenses of more costly promotions (event shirts, team registration bags, team prizes, music, food, event scoring, water bottles, etc…)


ABOUT: BATTLE FOR THE BELL

This event started in 2012 as a local gathering between a few gyms whose owners all had their story originate out of one of CT’s first CrossFit affiliates, CrossFit Watertown. The event was a reason to connect with old friends and an opportunity for our communities to interact and grow. It has grown into what many consider to be one the best run local team competitions in the New England / Tri-State area with 128 Athletes and teams coming from as far as the Canadian border to participate. We have sold out every year since the event’s inception.
