Congratulations to these athletes on an outstanding performance so far. We’re proud to see Team Texas continuing to make an impact on the national stage!
The 2026 YETI Climbing National Championships kick off this week at High Point Climbing and Fitness in Orlando, Florida, and Team Texas will be well represented on one of the biggest stages in U.S. competition climbing.
From February 11–15, 2026, a total of 249 registered athletes from across the country will compete for the title of National Champion in the Boulder, Lead, and Speed disciplines.
