FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• Who Can Join? - All University of Utah students, undergraduate or graduate, are qualified for membership.

• What If I Have Never Climbed Before? - If you have never tried climbing before but think you might enjoy it, the recreational team is a great place to start. At team practice, newer climbers can climb together in an encouraging environment and learn the fundamentals of climbing. There are three coaches who work with our team who will be at each practice. Additionally, there are plenty of great climbers on team who would be sure to give you some pointers if you asked.

• How Much Are Team Dues? - $50 total for rec team, $150 total for comp team.

• Are There Tryouts? - No! You do not have to try out to join either the rec or comp team.

• When and Where are Team Practices? - This fall, our weekly practices will be held on Wednesdays at Momentum Millcreek from 8-10pm. Those who don't have a Momentum membership can sign up for a free practice day pass here.

• Why Join Rec Team? - Joining the rec team is a great way to meet new people at the U, to get outside, to become a better climber, to explore some of Utah's amazing climbing areas, to get big gym membership discounts, and to become part of a great team!

In addition to these benefits, comp team members will be provided with jerseys, funding, and housing for competitions. (The amount of funding we give will vary on a situational basis).
