HISTORY

We launched the OPEN+LGBTQ in 2018 as the first and only all-inclusive CrossFit Games leaderboard for the LGBTQ+ community. And in 2021, we continue to celebrate those who are OUT in the OPEN for the 2021 CrossFit Games Open.

We'll aggregate scores from the OPEN onto this website and leaderboard and provide an avenue for our athletes to directly compete.

Most importantly, OUT in the OPEN is all for charity, benefiting The OUT Foundation’s programs as we continue to advocate for access and inclusion in fitness, access to health and wellness for our community, and more.

BE OUT IN THE OPEN!

We promote friendly competition between LGBTQ+ athletes and allies, to allow all gender identities to participate in a sport we love and to raise funds for The OUT Foundation and its programs.

WHAT IS OUT IN THE OPEN?

OUT in the OPEN is OUTAthletic's all gender, 100% inclusive leaderboard for the LGBTQ+ community and allies and corresponds with the 2021 CrossFit Games Open.

We eliminate the binary competition categories so that we can all compete together as a community.

2021 LEADERBOARDS COMING SOON

As part of our dedication to create the most inclusive leaderboard experience, you will notice that for our weekly winners, we use the "ALL RX" and "ALL Scaled" leaderboards.

Additionally, while we know the CrossFit Games system forces you to choose a gender (something we are working diligently to address with HQ) - you will notice that our verbiage uses "CrossFit Men's Standards" and "CrossFit Women's Standards" so you may choose the movement standards you wish to compete under, even if you do not identify on the binary.

While we know this isn't the perfect solution - it is a step in the direction of which we will forge our path to full inclusion.

Leaderboards will be updated every Thursday by 9pm EST for the prior week.
