As part of the team you will be provided with a membership to the climbing works, weekly training sessions and entry to BUCS.

NUBS (Northern University Bouldering Series) is open to anyone attending the university no matter the ability level, with grades ranging from V0-V8. It’s a great way to get introduced to climbing competition and also to meet other climbers. For additional information on this drop us an email.
