During these past few weeks of the RoxFire Hero Team Tournament, we’ve seen the best of our members come out and we can honestly say that we’re proud. RoxFire has always been about being the best version of you and our members reflect that idea to the fullest. Are many competitive to a fault? Yes, but that drives performance and improvement. Has everyone been inclusive and supportive, no matter the fitness level that’s competing? 110%. What’s been a joy to watch are the members who have reflected on their experience and how they’ve grown over the past few weeks because this competition has always been about one thing: an opportunity to grow. That’s why we created the Spirit of the Tournament Award.
The four teams have each put forth a candidate the exemplifies the qualities we look for in our culture that have been expressed throughout the competition. These four individuals are welcoming & supportive, but will push you to be the best version of yourself with no excuses. They are a member who has supported their team captain and their fellow teammates by organizing, lending a hand and improving morale if there’s been a dip. They all have pushed themselves individually to be the best they can be from a performance standpoint, often surprising themselves with the results. A strong resolve and an indomitable will are key ingredients to their success, individually and collectively.
The next step will be for the other teams to review these candidates and vote for the one they feel best exemplifies the honor of the Spirit of the Tournament. The twist is that members are not allowed to vote for the candidate put forth from their own team. This is in an effort to showcase how this individual has impacted not only their team, but the competition as a whole.
We look forward to revealing the winner at our Holiday Party on December 12th!
Without further ado here are the nominees:
CAROLINE F, Fun Disasters

GRANT S, Team Blitzkrieg
Grant has all the qualifications of a Hero. He shows up, and by that I mean he comes to every workout ready with a plan and the drive to leave it all on the field. He is a team player and is always there to offer support, often sharing his strategy with the team and coming in when he’s not working out to cheer others on. He is reliable and kind.
