YOUTH CLIMBING CLUB

At the centre we pride ourselves on developing a young knowledgeable climbing community for the future. We have had great success with passing on our love of climbing to some very gifted youngsters. Those in a number of cases have even gone to British national finals.

We have four clubs that run over the weekends, two Saturday and two Sunday. These run from 10am till 1pm.

On Sunday at 1:10pm we have a group for younger climbers 7-10 year olds to learn some skills and hopefully progress into one of our main clubs from 10am till 1pm on the weekends.

Then during the week we have our Wednesday session, designed to be an open session with some advanced coaching for our older climbers and working on the basics for the younger ones.

All our weekend clubs follow the NICAS (National Indoor Climbing Achievement Scheme) scheme which is used all over the country and is a great starting point for any young climber. Also this lends a great goal setting and future development pack for those who have been climbing a little longer. This is also great for such awards as D of E (Duke of Edinburgh Award) as they ask you to show progression within a sport and NICAS supports this nicely.
All our clubs cost £8 for a one and a half hour session, with the weekend clubs being committed to and paid in advance for a five week block.
