Whilst rock climbing derives from individual pursuit, the T4 team-based approach is different.

The benefits of bouldering as an activity are widely published.  However, we all have different experiences based on how we engage.  And these frameworks for engagement are not all the same. 

Everything about T4 is designed to harness the positive attributes of sport.  

T4 uses a team-based framework in both its sport formats.  It's absolutely by design. 

Individuals can track their own progression using T4's unique standardised grading system but they are never in direct competition with each other.  Individual data is private. The T4 handicap system ensures equity which feeds into inclusion.  It's a symphony. 

Teams by definition are a group of people working together towards a common goal.  

"On a team, it's not the strength of the individual players, but the strength of the unit and how they all function together"  Bill Belichick (NFL Patriots champion coach) 

Healthy communities tend to share the same tendencies. 

This is why we use the T4 - sport for all the right reasons.
