Join the climbing team at Trinity Sport for a four-week course teaching you the basics of climbing, health, and safety, knot tying, and belaying. At the end of the four weeks, there will be an opportunity to gain your site-specific top rope license to use the climbing wall.
Climb Sessions
This course is aimed at people who would like to take up climbing. You do not need any experience but equally it is suitable for those who have climbed before. You will be taught the basic techniques for indoor top rope climbing on our city centre wall. On the last night of the course you will be assessed and if you meet the requirements will then be issued an online subscription meaning you can use Trinity Sports Climbing wall unsupervised (please be aware to top rope climb you will need two licensed climbers to use the wall).
