Mission Statement - CrossFit Hartford
CrossFit Hartford Competition Team
DECIDE COMMIT SUCEED
Mandatory Requirements and Standards of Conduct
(Version 1.0 Composed February 18, 2015)
Written by: Coach Kevin Doyle, Coach John Durrett & Coach Mark Balkun
Every team needs to have a set of goals, core values, and expectations that are clearly identified and defined. Below are the core
values and expectations we feel are crucial to achieving our goals of sustained high-level performance and continued success,
including both winning on the competitive field of play and building a healthy and unique gym culture.
Mission Statement
Our GOALS are to produce Regionals or Games caliber athlete(s) in the sport of fitness identified as CrossFit. We expect all team
members, regardless of age or gender, to operate as a cohesive unit that supports this direction.
CrossFit Hartford Competition Team Goals
By joining this team, you are making the conscious decision be part of a Championship Culture. A Championship Culture places a
premium on results and relationships. Therefore our goals are two-fold;
1) WINNING
2) Building healthy relationships within the team and beyond.
WINNING
To the casual observer this goal is seemingly simple and elicits a “no kidding” type of response. Every team and every competitor
who steps into the competitive arena wants to win. In the world of competitive sports regardless of one’s specific sport, there are is
one winner. There is one 1st place in the open, one first place in Regionals, and one first place in the games. What separates winners
from looser is what we will focus on to achieve our goals.
Commitment: Our willingness to invest ourselves fully into putting in the hard work necessary to train and improve on a daily basis.
It is our willingness as a team to take personal responsibility for our individual development throughout training. It is our willingness
to be unrelenting competitors for the duration of all competitions and in training.
Competitiveness: Our intensity and attitude in competition will un-nerve our opponents, including those with tremendous talent and
a tradition of winning. A constant unrelenting effort is not something most teams or individuals are used to, or equipped to deal with.
Our spirit will mentally break and intimidate our opponents over the course of each competitive event and eventually Regionals and
Games. We will cause self doubt and ultimately a decision, conscious or unconscious will be made by those who oppose us that
winning is not worth the effort.
Confidence: An unbreakable belief that YOU and your TEAMATES have what it takes to be successful in every competition. This
is not meant to imply that competitions will be easy. In fact most if not all will be grueling! The degree of difficulty is proportional to
the degree of satisfaction you have after victory!
Character: Our collective willingness to put our maximum effort and ability into everything we do associated with training and
competing is what will separate us. Even in times of desperation in training and or competition, having the character to realize that
your attitude, body language and effort, effect every person on the team or training not only in that moment but as a contribution to
our long term success and body of work as a whole come competition day. We will celebrate our victories and never make excuses
for failure, or revel in self pity.
Building Healthy Relationships
While all teams are “results oriented”, it should be noted that within our Team Healthy Relationships with each other, the community
will receive equal value. Now that we are placing such a high premium on healthy relationships, here are some of the key factors that
contribute to team unity and cohesion.
Trust: When people know you will do the right thing and that what you say is in line with what you do, then trust is established.
1
Trust is the cornerstone of every relationship. Honesty is not an easy thing to practice, and it’s certainly not easy to encourage. We
have fears which make us not want to know, hear or say certain things. At the end of the day, I believe, the best way to implement
honesty and trust is by understanding how much fear and less than truthful exchanges can sabotage us and that we must have the
courage to deal with them.
Care: Everyday try to show your teammates that you genuinely care about them and our goals. There are two types of people in our
world, those who lift people up, and those who push them down. Both of these can occur intentionally as well as unintentionally. We
shall hold ourselves to the standard that each member of this team consciously work to lift your teammates up.
Respect: Like you, every member of our community and Team have many demands of their time. Therefore be respectful of our
community and each other by being courteous, on time, highly focused, and committed to our Team Goals, Core Values, Standards of
Behavior, and to giving your best effort in every training session, competition, or community / Team related event.
Pride: Every member of this Team should have a strong sense of pride. Committing to contribute and work towards our team goals,
champion our core values, and uphold our standards should empower you to feel valued, appreciated and unique fort the contributions
you make toward our success.
Leaders: Leaders on the team are to be servants of the team. They are intentional about building string relationships within the team
in an effort to make EVERYONE feel respected, appreciated, successful and comfortable during competition and training. Leaders
will be our representatives to the community at large and have a vital role in handling all major team decisions with the Coaches.
Selflessness: Because each member of this team will possess a deep sense of Pride, feel respected, trusted and cared for, they are
willing to be selfless and subvert their individual goals for the benefit of the entire Team and community.
