The CrossFit Games Quarterfinals serve as the second stage in the CrossFit Games season, a crucial stepping stone for athletes aiming for the Games.

The Quarterfinals invite the top 25% of athletes from the Open in various divisions, including individual men and women, age groups, and teams, across all global regions​.

This stage is mostly virtual, with athletes performing workouts in their local gyms and submitting scores online. For all divisions, athletes have specific workout completion and score submission windows.

Workouts are released during the competition period, and athletes must submit their scores within set deadlines. There are usually two submission windows for all divisions.

For those participating or following, the Quarterfinals mark a significant elevation in competition intensity, serving both as a filter for the fittest and a platform for athletes to showcase their improvement and compete for a spot in the more selective Semifinals.
