SCUIBL (Southern Counties University Indoor Bouldering League) is a set of competitions that our club takes part in every year. This year the dates and locations are as follows:

10th November 2007 - Bear Rock, Warwick
1st December 2007 - High Sports, Alton
19 January 2008 - Undercover Rock, Bristol
March some time 2008 - The Redpoint Centre, Birmingham

We have entered two mixed teams of 3 per round, one will be the "A" team and the other, the "B" team, both of which can be different people each time.

Team Selection
Primarily, we are interested in drivers being on the teams, as 6 people need to be taken each time, so we will need two cars each time unless someone is going with a big car. Then the people who are most likely to score high points out of those who want to go will be put on the "A" team, and the "B" team is for those who just fancy giving it a go, or people who might become the "A" team later on. It is open to everyone.

The Competitions are Fun!
The competitions are really good fun and there is absolutely no pressure on you from the club to get any kind of score, we're most interested in being able to send two teams each time as we always have done. I have been to quite a few competitions and have never felt daunted or under pressure, but have rather enjoyed myself, as everyone helps everyone else out, and it has been an opportunity to really focus on my technique.

Cost
£6.25 per competitor for each round, plus money to cover the petrol of the driver's car you use.

The First Competition - post now if you'd like to go!
The first competition is Sat 10th November, the week after the day trip and the same weekend as the Portland trip - therefore only sign up if you're happy not to go on Portland.

If you have any questions, let me know, and speak to people like Laurence, MILF-Hunter, Jacqui, Stina, Little Dave, Andy C, Jules and Rhi, as they have all taken part in SCUIBL.

Thankyou very much Sensei Chris! Well I'll set to work finding the necessary equipment to at least make the male competitors look like they're hot women!

Put me down for 1st of September if noone who is actually any good at bouldering wants to do it. I'll do Bear Rock too but don't put me down yet as I want to go Portland.

A Comp! :D

I'm well up for this, though I've never comped properly before. It also give me a good excuse to practise some bouldering, as lead climbing seems to have fallen out with me.

I don't drive and I don't mind missing out on trips.

~Nath

P.S. Oh, and how are teams gonna be sorted out? You gonna post on here or talk to us at creation or what?

Prob a mixture of both - if someone I know that is a very good boulderer signs up I'll put them straight on the A team, but in your case - someone I haven't seen bouldering I'll ask you at creation or on the internet about what standard you're at. Thanks for the interest in taking part!

Dammit.

I'm really hoping to go on the Portland trip, but if I miss the sign-up for some reason, you can count me in, Katie.

You can put me down for the rest of them as well, barring some unfortunate injury/conference/death.

Also, I'd encourage some of the new people to give it a go. I went to just about all of them last year, and they're actually a lot of fun. Everyone is very relaxed, there's no pressure, and even your so-called 'competitors' will be quick to offer encouragement and advice.
