                                      YOUTH LEAGUE FAQS

                                      If your kid crusher is new to climbing, we have leagues which focus on building the fundamental techniques and knowledge to start rounding out their introduction to the sport – our Recreational Leagues! For ages 6-12, Rec Leagues are a 9-week series of classes which create a sturdy foundation for beginner climbers. We have a standard Rec League, a Homeschool Rec League during the day, a Teen Rec League for ages 13 & up, and an Adaptive Rec League for climbers with physical or developmental disabilities, cognitive disorders, physical impairments, and/or neurodivergent conditions.  

                                       

                                      If your kid isn’t quite old enough for Rec Leagues, but still wants to move and groove on the wall, we also have a Wee Rock series that runs for 6-weeks for ages 3-5.

                                       

                                      If your climber has a solid foundation of experience already, or perhaps has already taken one of our other programs, you can think about signing them up for our Youth Team! With the option to practice 1, 2, or 3 times per week, team climbers strengthen their fundamental skills, explore advanced techniques and climbing concepts, and work towards long-term climbing goals, physical and mental strength, and being a part of a community! Teams run year-round and are always attached to a gym membership, so your climber can come crush outside of practice too!

                                       

                                      For those climbers who have been training hard for a sustained, consistent amount of time, our USAC Competitive Team awaits! Whether they’re transferring from another USAC team elsewhere, ascending up the ladder of our own Youth Programs, or have trained in their own manner and feel the competition bug, climbers who are interested in our Comp Team can connect with our Head Coach and programming department about trying out to be a USAC climber!

                                      If your climber is curious about the USA league, talk to their coach and we’ll schedule an evaluation. Email info@iloverockclimbing.com to learn more.

                                      Depending on which program your climber is a part of, there will either be a one-time payment for a series of classes, or monthly payments for a team membership.

                                       

                                      The Wee Rock series is $125 for 6 weeks of classes

In addition, team climbers pay monthly dues depending on how many days/week they attend practice, though sibling discounts do apply!

                                      All of The Crag’s youth programs follow the Davidson County School schedule for holidays and inclement weather. If school is not in session, we will not be offering programs that day.

                                      Belay certified parents are welcome to help belay! The more belayers, the more kids climb!

                                      Age restrictions are in place for both bouldering and belaying on top-rope.

However, Rec League and Team Climbers are not required to compete – we believe climbing is an individual experience and should serve the climber in the ways that they are most comfortable! USAC Competition Team climbers are, however, required to attend two Qualifying Events per year on the team.

                                      For all of our Youth Competitions, some sort of prize is allotted for the climbers who place! Prizes vary depending on the competition.

                                      With the exception of summer break, all of The Crag’s youth programs follow the Metro Nashville Public School schedule for holidays and inclement weather. If school is not in session, we will not be offering programs that day. Individual days off will sometimes be replaced by a School’s Out Day Camp.
