November 4 & 5, 2017

Our 2 day individual only premier competition just got a little better. In our 5th year, we decided to move to a different venue to better meet the needs of our athletes and spectators. The 2017 Battle of the Barbells will be held at the Middle Tennessee Expo Center.

Thank you to CrossFit Murfreeboro for being a great host to us for the last several years. The new venue is just a few minutes away and offers more space for athletes, spectators, & vendors. As well as ample parking and bathrooms.

Save the date and stay tuned for more details….
