Inter-Schools Competition 2016

Our 2nd Inter-Schools Competition with under 16 and 16+ categories. Teams of 3 or more.

After a great first event in 2015, the Boulder Brighton Inter-Schools Comp is back for more this year! There will be an open climbing round of 20 problems open from 13:00 to 15:30. Boulder Brighton instructors will be in the wall supervising the participants as they attempt to climb as many of those 20 problems as possible. Each school will be given a safety brief before starting. Usual flash comp rules with 10 points for a first ascent, 7 points for a second ascent, 3 points for a third ascent and 1 point for any eventual ascent.

At 15:30 participants must stop climbing and teachers will be responsible for the groups outside the climbing area. We will then collate the scores and invite the top 3 scoring U16 schools and the top 3 16+ schools and colleges (based on the total of the highest 3 scores from that school) to enter a team of 3 for the finals problems with climbing starting at 4pm and complete by 5pm.

We will have a break room available upstairs for rest during the event and for the 30 minute window between the climbing round and the finals problems. While the finals will involve any ages up to and including 6th form students we will break down the results as soon as possible by year of birth in the same categories used by the International Federation of Sport Climbing.

Entrants £6.00pp, £3.50pp shoe hire. A risk assessment for the event is available from tom@boulderbrighton.com Special registration forms for the participants are needed. Boulder Brighton will require a signed registration form for each participant, even if they are already registered with us. Please bring these on the day.
