Team Orange Crush consists of 4 training levels:

Crush Development – Climbers are required to practice with the team 4 hours per week. They are allowed and encouraged to compete in the same competitions as the competition team but are not required to do so. This is a great place to develop your climbing skills and strength and find out if being a competitive climber is for you.

Crush Competition – Climbers are required to practice 9 hours per week with the team and are expected to climb additional hours on their own. They are required to compete in a set number of competitions per season.

Crush Elite – These climbers compete at a divisional and national level. Climbers are required to practice 12 hours per week as well as additional group and solo training outside of practice.
