Dart Rock Climbing
Dart Rock Climbing
In preparation for our lesson with the younger students, today's experience at indoor climbing was quite entertaining and productive. We concentrated on enhancing our coaching skills in the direction of creating warm-up games and activities designed to involve various climbing techniques. Such techniques included traversing, matching, bouldering and many more. It was interesting to observe the creativity and versatility of the pupils in regards to creating games and adapting for increased performance/involvement. In addition, it was with admiration that we noted the clear progression of each individual's confidence and capability in areas of both personal and coaching work. Thus, we look forward to the oncoming weeks and the continuous improvement of the students of Plymouth College.

Second years indoor climbing refresher
ahead of their led session for year 7&8's the second year BTEC students had their first refresher for climbing, which went well and we were able to move beyond the basics and look a bit more in depth at movement skills.
