Slide 1
I’ve been competing in the Madeira Games for the past three years, and it’s always a great experience. The setting is incredible, but what really stands out is how well-organized everything is. Igor and the team do an amazing job of creating a competition that feels professional but still approachable for all athletes. The atmosphere is always friendly and supportive, whether it’s the organizers, judges, or other competitors. You can tell everyone’s there because they love the sport, and that makes every event something to look forward to. PS: Make sure you know how to swim ;)

O que mais aprecio nos Madeira Games é que para além da organização por à prova o teu fitness nas mais variadas formas com Wods criativos e divertidos, podes, ao mesmo tempo, usufruir de uma arena com um cenário único e incrível. Diria que é a perfeita combinação de “trabalho” e lazer. De salientar o apoio incessante da grande equipa de voluntários que estão sempre lá, com um sorriso, para o que precisares. Mais do que um competição é uma experiência!

I’ve competed at multiple CrossFit competitions in the United States and mainland Europe, the Madeira Games is THE best competition for sure. I've now done the Madeira Games three times. The events have been great. Every year the competition has run very smoothly and on time. It’s a competition I don’t want to miss.
