Moscow WC in April suspended

IFSC informs that the Boulder World Cup in Moscow 1-3/4 is suspended. This means that the Boulder World Cup in 2022 will start with the event in Meiringen in Switzerland 8-10/4.

"IFSC President Marco Scolaris held several meetings today. During his discussion with the Ukrainian Mountaineering and Climbing Federation (UMF), he expressed the solidarity of the IFSC and the entire Climbing community with the people of Ukraine during this unprecedented crisis. President Scolaris added that he hoped the conflict in the Ukraine would end quickly and peacefully without any further violence.

The IFSC intends to relocate the event to another location, with an announcement to follow once a new host has been selected."
