The British Olympic Association has officially announced the four climbers selected to represent Great Britain in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Following their performances in the Olympic Qualifier Series last month, Erin McNeice, Hamish McArthur and Molly Thompson-Smith will join teammate Toby Roberts, who won the European Qualifier in Laval last year, to form a full-quota Boulder & Lead team for Team GB in Paris.

Boulder and Lead World Cup gold medallist Toby Roberts (19) from Surrey and Lead World Championship bronze medallist Hamish McArthur (23) from York are set to become Team GB's first ever male climbers at an Olympic Games.

Team GB's first climbing Olympian was Shauna Coxsey, who finished 10th in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

British Lead Climbing Champion Erin McNeice (20) from Kent won two bronze medals in the Olympic Qualifier Series events in Shanghai and Budapest this summer. Five-time British champion Molly (26) from London overcame a serious ankle injury 18 months ago to earn a quota place for Paris.

Team GB Chef de Mission Mark England OBE said: "After sport climbing made its Olympic debut in Tokyo, we are thrilled to select four climbers for Paris 2024. We hope that Toby, Hamish, Erin and Molly will have a brilliant debut experience at these Games, and we wish them all the very best competing in Paris this summer." 

The British Mountaineering Council commented:

"Huge congratulations to all four athletes selected for TeamGB heading out to Paris. The commitment from the athletes, the back room staff, coaches, families, and everyone involved has been phenomenal. We can't wait to see what this team can do on the biggest world stage in Paris, and wish them all the very best of luck."
