The International Federation of Sport Climbing, together with the IFSC Continental Councils and in agreement with the
National Federations and the Local Organising Committees of the competitions affected by the outbreak of the COVID-19
coronavirus, announced some strategic decisions concerning the calendar of the upcoming months.
Specifically, it has been decided to:
- Postpone the IFSC European Championships in Moscow (RUS), initially scheduled to take place from March 20
to 27; the competition is now scheduled from June 15 to 22 - Postpone the IFSC World Cup in Meiringen (SUI), initially scheduled to take place from April 3 to 4, and the IFSC
World Cup in Seoul (KOR), initially scheduled to take place from May 8 to 10; both competitions will likely be held
between September and October - Postpone the circuit of IFSC Europe cups and IFSC Europe youth cups that were scheduled to take place in April
and May; the IFSC Europe Sport Department is working closely with each event organiser in order to establish a
new calendar for the competitions affected by this issue
These decisions add up to the ones that were taken in the previous weeks:
- To postpone the two IFSC World Cup competitions initially scheduled to take place in Wujiang (CHN) and
Chongqing (CHN) in April - To postpone and relocate the IFSC Asian Championships initially scheduled to take place in Chongqing (CHN)
from April 25 to May 3
Any further development will be communicated in due time, said the groups.
