News Olympic Qualifier Series Shanghai - Report
The first round of the two-part Olympic Qualifier Series took place in Shanghai, China last week, where Sport Climbing was showcased alongside Breaking, Skateboarding and BMX riding. A nervy competition led to both upsets for favourites and breakout performances by young up-and-coming athletes. GB Climbing's six-strong cohort achieved one podium finish and two further top-20 places in Boulder & Lead, with Erin McNeice winning bronze, Hamish McArthur placing 7th and Molly Thompson-Smith 13th.
