Rules

For those that would like to use the gym when we’re not hosting classes you can purchase a membership that gives you 24/7 access. As a member, you agree to abide by CrossFit South rules listed below, on the gym website, or posted at the facility. These rules may be amended from time to time at the sole discretion of CFS. Below are the general rules that you must meet in order to be eligible to have access to the gym.

You must have been a CFS member for a minimum of 1 month and have a minimum of 20 check-ins until you are eligible for access.
