Youth Teams
Train. Learn. Prepare. Commit.
Arq’s goal with its team is to teach participants the skills required in competitive climbing. The team is designed to introduce and refine decision making (under pressure), to create goal oriented structure, and to grow athletes into responsible, motivated, committed climbers.
Progressive Team
September - June || Wednesday & Friday
Lead by Taryn Roberts, who has worked with Arq's after-school programs and now teams for the past 2 years, team members will spend more focused time on competition style climbing. Athletes will refine the physical, mental, and technical aspects of performance, leading them to a sense of readiness as a competitor.
Through one-on-one coaching and group integration, we’ll address personal goals and encourage opportunity…in the gym and in life. Beyond Arq, we want to give youth a chance to take the skills they learn in the gym into the community, with respectable attitudes, strong work ethic, and a positive approach towards others.
With our training area, conditioning and strengthening exercises will be a common theme. Team members will be encouraged to compete in regional, provincial, and national competitions, with facilitated registration and travel organization. All members will receive 10% discount in our retail area and 20% discount towards personal training.
