FAQ

1. If I’m Matrixed to a CFT what team am I on?

You are on the team you are matrixed to.

2. Can I be on more than one tournament team?

We recommend no. If your team keeps winning, you’ll keep playing. 

3. If my team is eliminated, can I participate in other activities to earn points?

YES!  Feel free to walk around the track, donate blood, or check to see if there’s room at a Wellbeats Group Fitness Class.

4. Can I do more than one activity during the morning?

YES!  You can mix and match as much as you like.  Most activities (non-tournament) start on the hour.  For example, 5K Fun Run/Walk followed by Scavenger Hunt or Corn Hole followed by Disc Golf.

If you are interested in volunteering (volunteers earn team points, too!), contact the Community Support Coordinator at 661-275-4543 for details.

Let the games begin!
