Junior climbing courses are available throughout the year

Based at Abingdon School Sports Centre

Welcoming boys and girls aged 5 to 15 years.

Our junior sessions are group based activities, designed to give an introduction into the world of climbing. Whilst focusing on enjoyment, your instructor will teach climbing techniques and basic safety skills required to progress in this sport. We run both beginners’ and improvers’ sessions designed to target those new to the sport, or those wanting to brush up on their technique.
