With well over 300 participants conquering 48 routes between them, Boulderactive is now adjourned till next year. This year’s 3-day event was packed with intense action as climbers displayed their strength and dexterity, wowing many spectators in the process. The invited guests as well as the casual onlookers were certainly impressed by the fine abilities shown by some of our climbers.

On behalf of the NUS Climbing Sub Club, I would like to congratulate all winners and thank all the competitors for their support in this event. Without you guys, we would not have such an awesome atmosphere that continuously runs high for 3 straight days.

I would also like to extend my appreciation to the organising committee, the NUS Climbing Team, the Dinos and friends of NUS Climbing Sub Cub for the long hours they have committed during the preparation phase and during the actual event itself. Lastly, a big shout out to Rahayu (NUS SRC), Melvin (Chief Judge), Ivan (Chief Routesetter) and Jups for their advice and support.

Photos will be uploaded soon, in the meantime… THANK YOU!

Project Director,

Boulderactive 2007

Due to overwhelming response, online registration has closed as the quota for each category has been met.

We thank you for your tremendous support in our event.

Please also note that an updated schedule is now available on the website. Changes have been made to isolation closure timings so as to accomodate participants who have prayers on friday afternoon.

The NUS Climbing Sub Club thanks you for the support you have given to Boulderactive 2007. The Novice Men and Open Men categories have exceeded their quota from the online registration - hence they are no longer available for online registration.

We understand that there are a few of you guys who have yet to register but are keen to climb. We regret that such quotas had to be imposed but these measures are there to ensure that the schedule is kept to for the smooth running of the event. We seek your kind understanding on this.

The good news is, you may still head down to the event and register yourselves on a waiting list. Should there be participants who pull out from the competition or are late, we can put you in to fill the slots. Just make sure you prepare the necessary documents such as the indemnity and declaration forms; the registration forms will be available on site. Please note that this will be treated as an on-site registration (S$15).
