Just to let all you university climbers out there know that the Australian University Championships Rockclimbing is being held down in Melbourne this year, hosted by La Trobe University. The comp will be on the weekend of 10th - 11th July, which is one of the weekends that almost all Uni's have in common for holidays - so it's a good excuse to come down and climb at Arapiles (or the Grampians ... or even that must-visit granite super-crag, the You Yangs).

On Saturday 10th July, there will be an onsight technical climbing competition held at the Cliffhanger climbing gym in Altona. And on Sunday, there'll be a pump-fest style bouldering competition at Vic Ranges gym in Flemington - yes, for the first time in years you'll actually have the chance to compete in AUC bouldering - hoorah!

The official circular (with more info about how to enter, and how the divisions and everything else work) can be found on the unisport page here:

It will be heaps of fun, there'll be prizes, and socialising, and climbing, and a free set of steak knives!! What more could you want? If you have any questions you can contact either me (a.cohen@latrobe.edu.au) or Megan (evilmoose@shafted.com.au).
