Award Description
This award trains and assesses candidates in the skills required to supervise climbers on single pitch crags and climbing walls. Common activities undertaken by an SPA holder will be roped climbing and bouldering. The SPA does not include the skills and techniques required to teach lead climbing.
About
Venues will be decided closer to the time and with reference to the weather forecast. Normally Northumberland crags such as Bowden Doors, Great Wanney or Crag Lough / Peel Crag will be used to assess personal climbing skills. Group skills will be assessed at a different location to the personal skills venue. The climbing wall component will take place at the Newcastle Climbing Centre.
