On Monday, the climbing team attended the National Independent Schools Climbing Comp. It marked an exciting milestone for our climbing team, as for most of our climbers, this was their first competition. Despite the new experience, they rose to the challenge with great enthusiasm.

The day kicked off with bouldering, where our climbers tackled a variety of tricky problems. Their teamwork shone through as they supported each other in overcoming the tougher routes. We then moved on to top rope climbing, where encouragement played a huge role in pushing everyone to their limits to help complete climbs that otherwise might have been left unfinished by the Cranleigh team.

Standout moments came during the lead climbing segment, where Sam Y. and Archie Y. made incredible attempts despite having little experience. Stepping up to the challenge with confidence, they gave it everything they had, making for a truly inspiring effort.

Overall, it was an amazing start for our team. They gained valuable experience and a solid understanding of competition climbing, setting the stage for even greater performances in the future.
