That’s right folks, we’re jumping right into the new year in competitive spirit. Due to last years ‘Lockdown’ League boulder competition being a huge success, we’re doing it all over again…but new and improved! (I.e. no lockdowns, hopefully)!
The Winter Bouldering League will have 3 rounds; two month-long rounds in the same format as our previous ‘Lockdown League’ and a final round with a twist – you’ll have exactly one evening to score as many points as you can!
The competition is self-scored in a redpoint format: scoring 10 points for a TOP, with an additional 3 points if you did it on your first try (FLASH). This means no matter how many times it takes for you to top a route, as long as you cleanly finish the route, you get 10 points!
In each round, there will be 35 blocs to try on the Boulder Comp Wall – that’s a maximum of 455 points up for grabs for each round!
This competition is open to all climbers, whether you’re a seasoned vet or brand new to the sport, there’ll be plenty for you to climb and top.
The important bits:
Round 1:
- Month Long: Running from the 7th January to the 2nd February
- Scorecards MUST be handed in by 22:00 on the 2nd February – no exceptions!
Round 2:
