A new sport climbing competition, that will pit the world's top climbing nations against each other, will kick off this fall. The IFSC, sport climbing's governing body, has announced the creation of its 'Nations Grand Finale' competition, which will be held in Fukuoka, Japan, from October 23 to 26.
Aiming to combine "innovation, competition and international rivalry", the competition will consist of teams from the top-six-ranked climbing nations, who will face off in new boulder and lead climbing formats.
