Here's another Boulder League! If you joined last summer, we're excited to see you again; and if it's your first time, welcome! We have changed and simplified some rules this go-around, but the essence of the game remains the same: try hard with old and new friends! Boulder league is a 5-week long competition where we use a balancing system that rewards trying hard rather than what grade you climb. This ensures an even playing field, and encourages participation from diverse climbing levels. With that said, anybody can win! The winning participants will receive prizes, trophies, and of course, bragging rights.
