Climbing Club Tryouts

A couple of people said they didn't get the email, so here are the details for the tryouts!




We're looking for passionate members to take the Club forward in the years to come, and we'll be holding trials and interviews on the following 3 dates:

1. Friday 12 August from 6pm - 8pm
2. Saturday 13 August from 10am - 12pm
3. Tuesday 16 August from 6pm - 8pm

For those who are interested in joining the Varsity Climbing Team, this is an opportunity to come show us what you've got! For those who feel that the hustle and bustle of competitions is not your kinda thing, but still find yourself equally passionate about climbing, come down as well! At the end of the day, don't worry too much about what level of skill you're at, this is just for us to get to know you better.




For those who simply want a short primer to climbing, the Club is offering Level 1 Courses on weekends. This is an official certification for all climbers looking to do lead climbing in Singapore. It is also mandatory for safety purposes. It will be a one day course conducted by certified instructor. The dates are as follows:

1. 13th, 20th, 27th of August, from 10am to 5pm
2. Venue: Climbing Gym
3. Price: $45 for all NUS staff and students
4. Interested parties feel free to contact Desmond at 98342513 or email nusclimb@gmail.com




For all Intermediate Women's category climbers, you're requested to turn up for trials on Friday only. If you cannot make it, please email Randall at uturncity@gmail.com.




What are the trials for?

If you take a peek at our gym, you'll see that we are currently having a little bit of a space problem. As such, we wanna make sure the limited resources we have are best made use of. We're committed to take you out, to train you, to show you why we fell in love with this sport, only if you're committed to coming down as well!

We'll be looking at an intake of about 20 - 30 members this year. Do come down!




I'm interested in competitive climbing, how do I get into the team?

For climbers of all levels, this is the first cut. Subsequently, we'll be holding a series of mock competitions sometime in October before we decide on the final IVP list. So yes, if you want to make the competitive team, please come down for trials.
