Competition Lead Belayer Training

Are you an experienced belayer with little or no competition belay experience? Would you like to help our WA climbing community in a small way?

SCWA will be holding a series of training sessions for competition belaying with the purpose of forming and accrediting belayers for any lead comps held in WA.

The first session will be on 31 July, 6pm @ Urban Jungle - 83 Solomon Rd, Jandakot

If you don't already have an Urban Jungle belay/lead pass, and can't get assessed prior to the session, please arrive earlier to get assessed.

Please let us know you are coming.
