University of Pittsburgh

🇺🇸 Pittsburgh, PA

RWC climbing wall | Monday, August 24 and Thursday, August 27 | 7:30–10:00 PM Registration is done via experience Pitt We're a competitive collegiate program that competes in the USA Climbing Collegiate Series (Mid-Atlantic Division) and placed third in the country at the 2025 Collegiate National Championships. We train three times a week, twice at the RWC, Saturdays at Iron City Boulders. TWO TEAMS Competitive: 20 spots, 13 open. Travels and competes. Development: 20 spots. Same coaching and training plan, lighter commitment. More integrated into the season this year, with additional practice opportunities. You try out once and we work with you to place you where you fit. THE TRYOUT Bouldering only. Six boulders per category, wide range of difficulty. Zone and top both score, so you get credit for progress. Categories follow USA Climbing's male/female split, if that doesn't describe you, email us before tryouts. HOW WE SELECT Weighted in this order: tryout performance, previous competitive experience, and a written response (150 words max, submitted with this registration: who you are, what you want from the team, what you'd bring). Everyone is welcome to try out. We recommend some prior climbing experience, but developing athletes is the point of the program. DUES $150 per person per semester, including your ICB membership. The team and our partners offer financial support to anyone who needs it. Our discounted ICB memberships are open to all Pitt students whether or not you make the team. Bring climbing shoes, chalk, and clothes you can move in. Questions? Email pittclimbingteam@gmail.com
