YOUTH TEAMS
Climbing is a Path.
Our teams help youth develop as climbers, athletes, and humans. We foster growth through goal setting, critical thinking, and increasing confidence and resilience through a competitive platform.
Whether athletes are pursuing national competition goals or personal growth on the wall, every team provides a supportive environment where climbers are empowered to challenge themselves, support each other, and grow as both athletes and individuals.
