Team Momentum is a competitive climbing team. This means climbers compete with other climbers at the local,regional, and national level. On Team Momentum we have many skill levels, but placement on the team is by invitation only. The Momentum Team is consistently one of the highest ranked teams in the Region, is extremely competitive in our Division and always send competitors to Nationals.

Competition basics:
Competitions are split into two seasons (bouldering and sport climbing). The bouldering climbing season begins in September and lasts until about March. The sport climbing season begins around March and lasts until July. Each season we focus on specific skills and exercises designed to develop the basic skills needed to enjoy climbing and also to succeed as nationally competitive climbers. Bouldering season means a focus on power and movement, while sport season tends to focus on endurance and movement. Climbers compete in 2 local competitions, then compete in Regionals. If their placement is high enough they move on to Divisionals, and then to Nationals.
USA Climbing:
The competitions are organized by the national organization USA Climbing. To find out more about the specifics of USA Climbing click here.
