CrossFit Central Wellington is hosting it's fourth annual Winter Throwdown competition. This year we are supporting Upsidedowns.

Wellington

Every Throwdown season we host two CrossFit mixed pairs competitions (an in-house and a Wellington region competition). Our goal every year is to facilitate two fun filled days of CrossFit and support a local charity as chosen by the CrossFit Central Wellington Community.

This year we are supporting The UpsideDowns Education Trust - a charity focused on helping fund the speech language therapy costs of children with Down syndrome all over New Zealand.

It is the goal of UpsideDowns Education Trust to fund approved (with NZSTA-registered therapists) specialist education to all families in New Zealand that need and can benefit from this intervention. Due to the high demand for their fantastic services, they currently have a waitlist of families who urgently need their support.

Both events will be calling on the speed, strength, endurance and teamwork of each athlete competing. Most of all we will be having a load of fun and if you are not competing we encourage you to come down and support the athletes on the day. Please donate generously if you can.
