From the day it opened, early in
2006, the indoor climbing wall in our Sports Hall proved
a huge hit with pupils of all ages and sporting abilities.
Astonishingly, before the end of that academic year,
two Fyling Hall students succeeded in their heats in
the British Regional Youth Climbing Series and went
on to represent Yorkshire and Humberside in the national
finals.
Each year students enter the British Regional Youth
Climbing Series (BRYCS)
Two overhangs have now been added and the wall has
been cladded in plywood to make changing the route easier.
There are currently 5 routes up the wall to a height
of 7 metres, varying in difficulty from 4A to 6C.
The school runs a climbing club, currently on a Wednesday
evening and some climbers are invited to go to Dartmoor
on a full week exercise that takes in various degrees
of bouldering and climbing. |
