Unlike most other CrossFit events, this event raises money for charity. 

In fact, the largest prize pack isn't for the fittest team but for the team who raises the most money for the cause! This year, Dewey Beach Championship is thrilled to be raising funds for pediatric cancer care at the new Lisa Dean Moseley Foundation Institute for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Nemours Children’s Health, one of the top children’s hospitals in the country and one that is near and dear to many Dewey-goers in the Mid-Atlantic.

Why Nemours? We can all agree that childhood cancer is one of the greatest evils in this world and we want to do what we can to support them in their efforts to treat kids in their care and work to find a cure! Nemours is at the forefront of pediatric oncology and hematology research and care. The new Lisa Dean Moseley Foundation Institute for Cancer and Blood Disorders allows Nemours to care for and serve more children, in new and better ways. Nemours will create new spaces, house new programs, recruit more talent and make immediate and long-term impacts in treatment and research.

Dewey Beach Championship 2025 will take place Saturday, June 14th outside at the Rusty Rudder bar and restaurant, in the heart of Dewey Beach, Delaware, where we assemble a 12-lane competition CrossFit rig as well as utilize their bay access for a signature water/beach workout.

Our goal is to raise $50,000+ for Nemours Children's Health pediatric cancer care. There will be 96 2-person teams competing and hundreds of others attending and volunteering. Over the past four years, DBC has donated a total of $180,749 to the charities that we’ve supported! This is all thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, volunteers, participants and donors and we can’t thank them enough.

Thank you for your interest in supporting such a worthy cause! We truly believe we have made a difference over the years of hosting this charity event and we're more excited than ever to benefit Nemours Children’s Health this year.

IMPORTANT: New this year, Dewey Beach Championship 2025 teams will be invited to register based on their fundraising efforts.
