YCS (Wales) 2019 – Round 4 (Roped)

Perhaps the most popular competition for young people is the BMC Youth Climbing Series that is run in England and Wales.  This is a fun competition that is open to all within the age categories.  So, whether you’re an experienced climber or a beginner, this could be just the competition for you.  There are four regional rounds then a British Final when the top 3 in each category in each region competes.

There are five age categories in these competitions, with separate girls and boys competitions that follow the IFSC (International Federation of  Sport Climbing) system based on year of birth. The categories are called Youth A, B, C, D and E.
