Finals Format

League Finals are on Wednesday, March 6th from 4-9 PM!

Please sign up for a finals time slot! We have a lot of league participants, and need you all to come at different times in order to get everyone's climbs in. This will work best if you climb your specific finals routes during your time slot, and climb the bonus routes before/after your time slot, or once you are done with your three finals climb attempts.

Finals Climbing Details:

  • There will be 7 finals climbs that are all progressive routes: each route will start off easier, and get harder as you climb up the wall. For example, the easiest climb will start at 5.8 and end around 5.9, and the hardest climb will start at 5.12-/5.12 and end at 5.12+.
  • All finals climbs are flash format: you get one attempt per finals climb.
  • Every climb will have 8 zones. You will get points for the highest zone you achieve on your single attempt of each climb.
  • Because we have so many league participants, you will receive a scorecard with the three finals climbs you may attempt. These 3 climbs will be centered around your target grade. 
  • In additional to the 3 finals climbs you can get points on, there will be a bonus volume route for points, and the opportunity to score bonus points on up to 5 additional climbs around the gym. 
  • We will have pizza from Slyce, Mary's Mountain cookies, and beer from Odell (21+ participants) available starting around 6:30 PM. 
  • League hoodies will be available for pick up during finals starting at 4 PM.
  • Awards will be ASAP after finals once we tally up scores, likely around 9:30 PM. 

Award Categories:

  • Top 3 teams overall
  • Individual with the most recorded climbs
  • Best team name (crowd voted)

League Hoodie Design!

Hoodies will be available for pick up at Finals on Wednesday, March 6th



Thank you to our league partners!



League Rules & Details

The Overview

Each week, you will be scored on your top 3 climbs. Both you and your teammate's top 3 climbs will combine for a total team score each week, and your total league score will be your 4 highest scoring weeks.

Team Formation
  • Teams of 2 | Sign up with a partner! You will get a team score, which is the sum of both individual's scores.
  • If you don't have someone to climb with, we can try to help you find someone! 
  • We assume you usually will climb with your partner, but it really doesn't matter for scoring purposes. If you need another pal to belay you some sessions, that is a-okay.
Setting a Climbing Style and Target Grade

Each week you'll be scored on the top 3 climbs you send. You get points for each climb based on your target grade and climbing style selected when you sign up.

Selecting your Climbing Style:

  • Choose between Lead or Top Rope (TR)
  • If you choose Lead, you will only be able to score climbs that you send on lead. 
  • If you choose TR, you can score climbs that you send on lead or TR, but there are no bonus points for leading.

Selecting your Target Grade:

  • This should be the highest rated climb that you typically send on a day of climbing at the gym, according to the Climbing Style you select.
  • We encourage you to set an aspirational goal! Keep in mind that your target grade should be difficult for you, but doable.
  • We are NOT doing bonus points for leading. Depending on how many teams sign up for each climbing style, we may do separate awards for Lead and TR categories. 
Scoring
  • To receive points for a route you must send it cleanly without any takes. If you fall, then you must lower to the ground before starting again for it to count on your league sheets.
  • Remember, we are not doing bonus points for leading. The benefit to leading is that you have more terrain to climb on. Push yourself as you see fit!
  • You may "second" a route in the lead-only terrain and get points for that.
  • Your team score is the total points between you and your partner.
  • Everyone gets 1 drop week - the week with their lowest (or no) score 

Your personal score each week will be the sum of the 3 hardest climbs you send clean. Keep in mind that if you set your target grade accurately, not all 3 of your climbs are likely to be at or above your target grade. Put another way, if you consistently are sending climbs above your target grade, then you should have set your target grade higher - and you can expect that in the end your score will be adjusted to reflect this.

As you enter the routes on your scoresheet we'll give you the score you receive for each climb based on that target grade. If you climb a route at your target grade you get 100 points. Each grade above or below your target grade changes your score by 10 points. For example, if my target grade is 5.11 and I climb a 5.11- I'll get 90 points for that climb. But if I climb a 5.12- (which is 2 +/- grades above 5.11) I get 120 points.

Getting Bumped:

  • At the end of the league, we'll evaluate what grades you actually climbed throughout the league and determine what your real target grade should have been and recalculate all of your scores based on that new target grade. We'll basically throw out your outlying highest and lowest grades and set the target grade one or two +/- grades above middle grades you climbed. If you hit your target, your score will stay the same. If you climbed well above or below your target grade, we will adjust your score accordingly.
Google Sheets

Each participant will receive a link to their own personal online Google Sheet for tracking their climbs. Paper scorecards will be available, but please only use them if you don't have a way to use the google sheet. Each week you come in to climb for league, check in at the front desk and they will update your google sheet for that week. If you have any questions, ask the desk staff to show you how to use that. After you climb a route you'll enter the number of the route (from the start tag). Also have your witness (probably your climbing partner), enter their initials next to that. 

Your sheet will also show you the routes your partner has logged, and their score.

Team scores will be pulled together each week on Monday and a leaderboard will be posted here on this webpage.

FAQ

1Can you count a route twice if you top rope it and then lead it?
Not on the same day. However, you could count it on TR one day, and then again another day on Lead.
2What counts as a send?
Climbing the route without weighting the rope (taking) or falling.
3Can I "second" a route?
Yes, you may second a route in the lead-only terrain and get points for that.
4Should I choose my target grade based on top rope or lead?
Top Rope. If you only lead climb, you know we’re not talking to you. If you are working on leading, but still top rope most of the time, go off your top rope grade.
5Can I be bumped to a lower grade?
Yes, at the end of the league we'll evaluate what grades you actually climbed throughout the league and determine what your real target grade should have been. We will recalculate all of your scores based on that new target grade. Basically, we'll throw out your outlying highest and lowest grades and set the target grade based on the middle grades you climbed.
6Do I have to climb with my partner every week? What if we have to climb at separate times?
You can climb with anyone you want, even if they are not participating in league. BUT you must climb with your partner on Finals Day!
7Do I have to use Google Sheets?
No, but please do. It is extremely helpful to us when pulling together scores. If you need a physical scorecard, ask for one at the front desk.
8When will I get the league sweatshirt?
You will get the league sweater by finals week if you signed up on or before February 4th. The sweater price is included in the price of Sport League.
