Sportrock Youth Team Mission:
By using the medium of climbing, coaches teach our youth essential skills that will help them in life, no matter where they may find themselves. This is achieved through many avenues, including but not limited to, mastery of climbing fundamentals at each stage in development, short and long term planning skills by setting realistic and achievable goals, and character development through building perseverance and resilience while working to achieve their climbing goals.
