Kids

All climbers under 18 years of age MUST have a waiver signed by their parents or court appointed guardian. Download a PDF waiver. Climbers under the age of 14 must be accompanied and supervised by an adult (18 years or older) or in a Vertical Adventures Program at all times while in the climbing and fitness areas.

Kids 14 years old and older can take the safety class and learn to hold the ropes for each other. The class is $25 each and includes all necessary equipment. No experience or appointment is necessary.

Team Vertical

Youth Competition Climbing Team

Team Vertical is a program geared towards the young climber who wants to train with a team and compete in the USA Climbing competition series. The team is open to climbers age 19 and younger and encourages positive mentoring of older climbers with younger ones. Even though team members need to be serious about their desire to be a part of a competition oriented program, the main purpose is always to have fun and gain a passion for climbing.

Practices are held twice a week, but climbers are encouraged to climb an additional day on their own. Team Vertical is coached by experienced climbers who share a passion for working with children. Travelling is a requirement for most competitions, however, carpooling has never been an issue. Climbing is a sport where athletes compete against themselves, as they strive to reach their own goals. Competition among climbers is sought only as a way to improve individual skills, not to better their opponents. Everyone deserves success with climbing! Contact Eric for more information
