Decrease for Euro Youth Competitors

Since 2005, there has been at least five Lead Euro Youth Cups/Championships excluding 2013 with three and in the 2014 calender, there are only two events! Bouldering youth Cups have been organized since 2011 with two events each year but 2013 with four events. In 2012, a total of 12 Euro Youth Cups were hold which can be compared to the plan for 2014 with five. Another fact that has decreased the competition for the Euro Youth are that the World Championship since 2011 has taken place in Singapore, Canada and in 2014 it will take place in New Caledonia. One problem with this is of course that it will be harder for the juniors to prepare for taking the step top the World Cup 2015.
