6. Rope Supervisor (18+)
Participation Statement
All climbing and bouldering activities have a risk of serious injury or death. Participants must be aware and accept that even if they follow all good practice there may still be the risk of accident and injury. It is the responsibility of the participant to adhere to the conditions of use.
Guidance
This form should be filled out by competent roped climbers aged 18 or over and want to supervise up to two others either today or in the future. It allows you to boulder, use auto belays and roped climbs unsupervised and supervise up to two participants in these activities.
If you intend to supervise others (even if you are non participating in climbing) you must complete a Rope Supervisor (18+) form. You MUST be 18 or over to supervise and can ONLY supervise 2 other participants each visit. Please ask a member of staff if you need help with this.
Before using an Auto Belay you MUST receive an Induction from a member of TCA staff regardless of you experience. Please report to reception if you would like to use the auto belays, and have not received an induction.
