Group of FFC Union Station Members playing basketball with their scorecard for tournaments.

March Madness is coming to FFC — and this year, every member makes the difference.

Each club will compete in a bracket-style challenge based on the percentage of members who check in. The more members who show up, the stronger the club’s score.

Here’s how it works:

  • Buy-In Week: March 17–23
    All clubs compete to qualify. The top 8 clubs with the highest member check in percentage will earn a spot in the bracket and be seeded based on their results.
  • Elite 8: March 25–27
    Seeded matchups (1 vs 8, 2 vs 7, 3 vs 6, 4 vs 5). Each matchup runs for three days, and the club with the highest total member usage percentage advances.
  • Final Four: April 1–3
    The four remaining clubs compete over three days. The top two with the highest member check in percentage move on to the Championship.
  • Championship: April 6
    Two clubs. One day. The club with the most dedicated and driven members (based on highest usage percentage) is crowned the FFC March Madness Champion and will win a party featuring Pita Pita Mediterranean Grill and more!

Because this competition is based on participation, every member matters. Whether it’s a workout, class, or recovery session — your check-in helps your club advance.

Show up. Check in. Help your club make a run.

Don't forget sign

Bring the intensity, lower the noise.

Here’s how you can help:

  • Lift with control
  • Use headphones for music and media
  • Keep phone calls off the fitness floor

Thank you for helping us maintain a focused, respectful space for all members.
