Youth Climbing Team Tryouts

Interested in taking your climbing to the next level? Join us for Youth Climbing Team Tryouts, where athletes ages 9–19 will be evaluated for placement on our Recreational (Rec), Junior Varsity (JV), or Varsity teams.

Tryouts will take place Monday, August 10, Wednesday, August 12, and Friday, August 14 from 5:30–7:00 PM, and attendance at all three sessions is required.

Tryouts are completely free!

During tryouts, athletes will participate in bouldering, rope climbing, and a variety of fitness assessments. Our coaching staff will evaluate each athlete’s climbing ability, fitness, coachability, and overall readiness for team participation.

Placement on a team is not a reflection of an athlete’s potential or worth as a climber. Each team serves a different purpose in an athlete’s development, and every level provides opportunities to improve, challenge yourself, and be part of a supportive climbing community.

Athletes who already know they would like to join the Rec Team do not need to attend tryouts and can sign up now.For detailed information about each team, please visit the individual team pages under the Youth Programs section of our website.

Participants should bring a water bottle and wear comfortable athletic clothing and shoes. All climbing equipment will be provided for athletes who do not have their own gear.

We look forward to meeting the next generation of Sessions climbers!
