This year’s comp is open to all levels, with a mix of disciplines to keep things exciting.
Beginner-friendly Top Rope and Boulder options make it easy for newer climbers to get involved. Lead (plus Boulder) is now open to those with a lead tag looking for that extra challenge. Boulder is open to everyone, so no matter your level, there’s plenty to get stuck into.
To keep things fair and fun for newer climbers, those with a lead tag may not compete in Top Rope.
