Team CSC Newsletter - July 2022
Member of the Month - Kaitlin Mapplethorpe
This month’s member of the month goes to… Kaitlin Mapplethorpe!
The coaches think that Kaitlin deserves this award for a number of reasons, she has really upped her game in her training and is showing great progress!
Kaitlin has been a member with us since January 2020 and has always worked hard and been committed to her training. More recently she has been doing one to one PT sessions to work on her gymnastics skills!
Kaitlin is always keen to get involved in the CSC community by taking part in everything additional that we offer! She’s participated in the CrossFit Open, our in-house competitions, lockdown home training sessions and quizzes and is now organising a CSC outing to Ninja Warrior. Anything CSC related, Kaitlin is always keen to get involved!
Not only has she been showing great progress in the box, but Kaitlin is also due to compete in her first external competition next weekend! She managed to land herself in the second from top category in due to performing so well in her seeding workouts (Nice work Kaitlin!)
We look forward to seeing how far you can go on your CrossFit journey with us and are amazed with how far you have come in 2 years 💪

Team CSC Charity Hike 🥾
Team CSC completed our 2022 Charity walk in Snowdonia on the 2nd July!
The group completed under 20km and a little over 1,200 meters elevation! The conditions were rainy and classically Welsh, but we had an amazing adventure!
Thank you to everyone who participated and who has donated, consider donating to help us reach our fundraising goal for Mind!
Seniors Open Day
CSC recently hosted our first Seniors Open Day, where we open our facility to the local community to give an overview of CrossFit in a supportive environment. We want to highlight the benefits of continuing exercising and weight training through all stages of life.
It was great to have such positive testimonials from members of our community on the impact and positivity CrossFit has brought to their lives.
If you know someone interested in attending a future open day, please get in touch with one of the Coaches!
