I note the IFSC European Championship is on at Ratho on the weekend 4 - 6 October 2019.

Anyone know what the current thinking is on dates and venue for the BLCC?

I'm guessing it'll not also be on at Ratho that same weekend.

Unless it's a combined event? Presumably all who can compete in the BLCC are eligible for the Euros.

I'd have thought only climbers on the national teams would be eligible/selected/entered.

I be supprised if the Euros were open to all comers like the BLCC...

No. The BLCC's is an open event, the IFSC one is for those representing their countries. There was rumour of a possible date clash with an event, and this appears to be it!. Expect the BLCC to move to a different weekend, as it just isnt possible to run both simultaneously (quite apart from it being pointless.....)

Every day is a school day - I thought/assumed the BLCC had a qualifying procedure. Thanks for the education
