Boulder and lead combined

[edit]

A total of 40 climbers (twenty per gender) will compete in the men's and women's competition bouldering-and-competition lead climbing combined event for Paris 2024. Each NOC could only send a maximum of four climbers with an equal split between men and women. Quota places are allocated to the athletes by name. These qualification spots will be awarded as follows:[2][3][4]

  • World Championships – The three highest-ranked climbers in each of the two events will obtain a quota place, respecting a two-member limit for their NOC.
  • Continental Qualification Events – The highest-ranked eligible male and female climber at each of the five continental qualifying tournaments (Africa, Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Oceania) will obtain a quota place, respecting a two-member limit for his or her NOC.
  • Olympic Qualifier Series – The top ten male and female climbers after a series of two events in 2024 will obtain a quota place, respecting a two-member limit for their NOC. The list of athletes who will compete for these places has been published by the IFSC.
  • Host country – As the host country, France reserves one quota place each for the men's and women's boulder-and-lead combined events. If one or more French sport climbers qualify regularly and directly through the world championships or their respective continental meet, the host country slots will be reallocated.[3][2]
  • Universality places – Two invitational places will be entitled to eligible NOCs interested to have their sport climbers compete in Paris 2024 as granted by the Universality principle.
  • Reallocation – Unused quota spots for host country and universality will be reallocated to the next eligible climbers from the Olympic Qualifier series.
