Youth Team

The Tallahassee Rock Gym hosts it's own competitive youth climbing team. Our objective is to provide a safe environment for kids to learn and practice the sport of rock climbing, helping them to develop the skillsets to approach and overcome the mental and physical challenges of climbing. Our program aims to build confidence and reliance upon oneself in a fun and supportive environment.

Information

We offer two options for our climbing youth, our youth recreation team is geared toward building basic climbing techniques and skillsets in a fun, safe environment. Team Tallahassee is the competitive counterpart whose focus is the development of advanced skills necessary to compete in climbing competitions.

These youth climbers train in preparation for the USA Climbing Sport Climbing Series (SCS). These competitions run from March until June and we begin training in December. This means our climbing season generally runs from December until June of every year.

In addition we also focus on development of problem solving skills for competitive climbing applications.

Tallahassee Youth Climbing (recreational)

Season
January 5th, 2009 – April, 2009.

Focus With our emphasis on developing potential and ability in the climbing community, we believe that while some kids develop better in competitive environments, others are able to better perform in more individualized situations. This is where our recreation team excels, providing an environment where each child is given the opportunity to develop their climbing abilities in a fashion they feel most comfortable in. We work with the kids to develop ways of training that keep them excited about climbing and push them to improve themselves.

Schedule
Mondays from 4:30-6:30p.
