Winter Boulder League (WBL) is our multi-gym, fun-focused comp composed of three 9-day rounds spanning across two months, followed by a standalone finals for the top 10 Novice and Intermediate men and women. Competitors can compare their individual scores against their friends, in addition to competing in teams of 4.
This year, we've changed things up a bit - see the "what's changed" tab at the top for updates.
First, sign up for Solo and/or a Team of 4 people.
Then, follow the link to our Online Scorecard, fill out your details, and score yourself on each WBL boulder problem! There will be boulders of varying difficulties from Novice to Opens!
Finish a climb = 5 points
Finish a climb on your first go (flash) = +1 bonus point
Turn your scoresheet in by 7pm on the last day of each round to submit your scores, and see how you stack up!
To give everyone their time to shine, we’ve kept WBL finals for Novice and Intermediate. For Open climbers, that big-stage moment lives at West Coast Blocs.
No, sorry!
All finalists will be notified on Monday the 20th of July with some information about dates/times . Finalists must confirm their attendance by the 21st of July, otherwise we will contact the next person in line.
Finals will be run with 4 mins climbing time, 4 mins rest time.
They will be scored and judged as per new World Climbing (formerly IFSC) rules:
-
Top = 25 points
-
Zone = 15 points
-
Each unsuccessful attempt = -0.1 points
-
-
To access the scoresheet, click the "Scoresheet" link above and fill out your details and your scores as you go.
-
Hit "Save" to save your scores. You can hit "Save" as many times as you like before the submission date to save your scores. Reminder: Do not close the browser without saving, all progress will be lost!
-
You will receive an email with a link to access your saved scoresheet. Each time you “save” the scoresheet, you will receive an email with a link to access it (remember to check your spam inbox!). You can return to the scoresheet at a later time before the final submission date of each round. Please do not create a new sheet every time as this will cause delays when we are consolidating all scores.
-
Hit "Submit" to submit your final score! Don't worry, you can still return to this after you have submitted it as long as it is before the final submission date of each round.
-
Sign up is free. However, regular Portside Boulders entry fees still apply.
Get yourself and 3 other friends together and sign your team up using our sign up/scoresheet link, which will become available on the first day of Round 1.
This competition is welcome to all - check and see whether you fit into our “Novice” category.
