Setting Clinic

Clinic

June 20th thru June 25th

This routesetting workshop is designed for those who are eager and excited to get more involved in high level youth competition routesetting.

Regionals and Divisionals only come twice a year for each discipline and getting onto the setting crew for those events can be difficult.

The goal in this clinic is to provide a high level, multi-round routesetting event for those setters who have very minimal or no experience with these types of events but want to learn about the process and gain the knowledge of what is necessary to be on these crews.

Cost: $450

Includes 1 meal/day
