Шаблон:Infobox sports competition event The 2011 CrossFit Games were a sporting event, the fifth CrossFit Games, held on July 29–31, 2011, at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California. The winners of the Games were Rich Froning for the men's competition and Annie Thorisdottir for the women, who were both runners-up the previous year. CrossFit New England won the team competition.

2011 marked the first year of the "CrossFit Open" was used as the first part of the two-stage qualification process for the CrossFit Games. Online submissions of workout results were invited from competitors worldwide, and over 26,000 participated. Athletes were then selected to compete in the Regionals, and those who qualified then proceeded to the CrossFit Games. There were 10 events in the Games, including the first swim event which was held outside the main venue for the first time. Also starting this season, the Games settled on a scoring system of 100 points for the winner of an event, with decreasing number of points for lower-placed athletes, and the one with the most points at the end of the competition would be the champion.

CrossFit started a 10-year, $150 million, sponsorship and partnership deal with Reebok in 2011, and the prize money for the male and female individual winners of the Games increased substantially to $250,000 this year. The 2011 Games were also the first to be covered by ESPN, with live coverage streamed through ESPN3 as well as late shows on ESPN2, and the exposure further increased the popularity of subsequent Games.

Qualification

Open

2011 was the first year the Open was implemented as part of the qualification process in a CrossFit season. It replaced the Sectionals of 2010. Over 26,000 athletes participated the Open, which took place in six weeks from March 15 to May 1, 2011. Competing athletes participated in six workouts, with each workout released to be completed weekly. Athletes can submit their scores online either with video evidence or validation by judges in a CrossFit affiliate. Annie Thorisdottir and Dan Bailey were the respective female and male individual winners of the Open.

The point system used in both the Open was the same as that used for the Games last year, with points awarded directly corresponding to the rankings (1 point for first, 2 points for second, etc.). For teams, the combined scores of the individuals from a single gym were used to rank a team. Scoring for the Open stayed the same for all subsequent seasons.

Regionals

In each of the 17 regions, 60 individual athletes and 30 teams with the best results proceeded to compete in the Regionals. The Regionals were held over three days from May 27 to June 19, 2011. The workouts for the Regionals were standardized this year, and all athletes had to compete in the same six events to determine the qualifiers for the CrossFit Games. The scoring system for the Regionals was the same as the Open. A minimum work requirement was introduced for a Regional event for the first time. Failure by an athlete to complete a certain movement, for example, a single handstand push-up in the first event, would result in elimination.

In each Regional, the competing athletes were first cut to 14 men, 14 women, and 10 team after four events before proceeding to compete in the last two events. The number of qualifiers for the Games varied for each of the Regional competitions, but no more than three men and three women may qualify from each Regional. This is also the last Games where special invites were offered to the top 5 men and women of the preceding Games and winners of earlier Games. A total of 49 male and 47 female qualifiers went on to compete in the Games. Starting this year, CrossFit awarded prize money to all who qualified from the Regionals to the Games.

Individual events

The 2011 CrossFit Games featured the first event to be held outside of the main venue, which is the Beach event held on the beach at Santa Monica Pier. This was also the first swim event to be introduced at the Games. 10 events were held in total, the other 9 events were held at the various stadiums of Home Depot Center. The number of athletes were cut to 35 men and 35 women after the 6th event, 24 after the 7th, with 12 competing in the final event.

The point system was modified for the Games this year. Unlike the Open and Regionals, a scoring table was used for the Games: the winner of each event earned 100 points, each lower-ranked athlete until the 6th place gained 5 fewer points than the one higher up, and from 7th to 30th place the points dropped by 2 points every place, after which the points decrease by 1 point each.
