KIDS DIVISIONS

This year at Fittest of the Coast, we are offering a Kids Division! Registration for our Kids Divisions will be extremely limited – 16 slots per division.

Registration opens Wednesday, November 22 at noon EST.

Here is a brief overview and the intent of our Kids Divisions this year.

Info:
Our 2024 FOTC Kids Divisions will feature two age divisions: 6-9 and 10-12. The competition age will be age of athlete as of competition day.

These divisions will be featured as exhibitions. There will not be a podium ceremony for our Kids Divisions in 2024. Each division will complete one workout.

This is a great opportunity for kids to experience the excitement and fun of fitness and get to compete on the same competition floor as their parents!

The division cost is $40 and includes a t-shirt, participant medal and one (1) adult three-day spectator pass.

Each division will see age appropriate movements and loading. All workouts will be announced prior to the event so kids can practice the workouts.

The Kids Divisions will compete on Saturday, January 20, 2024 at the Charleston Convention Center. Heats will run from 1:00 pm to 1:30 pm.

Athlete check-in will be available for our Kids Divisions during any of our athlete check-in times on Thursday, Friday or Saturday.

Parents will be allowed to accompany kids in the athlete warm-up area.
