Proud to support Leah Crane's World Cup campaign

This year, we're very excited to be supporting Leah Crane as she represents the GB Bouldering Team for the entire 2016 IFSC Boulder World Cup Circuit. The World Cup tour travels across 3 continents and 7 countries, with national teams from all over the globe travelling to compete. Leah has been a friend of BB for a few years now and you may have seen her at the centre route setting and coaching from time to time. She's been working hard this year with her training partner Shauna Coxsey - we know she's super psyched for this season's competitions and we can't wait to see how she gets on.

The UK's athletes are largely self-funded, meaning that just getting to all the events is a huge challenge, let alone the costs involved in accommodation and training. We're very proud to be joining a small group of UK climbing walls in helping Leah get to all the World Cups in 2016 and let her show the world what she's capable of. The first event is this weekend in Switzerland, culminating in a live-streamed final round on 16th April at 17:30 UK time. These are great fun to watch, no guarantee that Leah will make it into the Final itself but it'll be great viewing regardless. Get involved and give Leah all the support you can on social media during the season!

Leah will be back in Brighton later this year in October and November after all the World Cups are over, where she'll be setting some new circuits and hosting a couple of workshops. Her workshops have always been excellent in the past - if you're interested booking for these is already open. UPDATE: Leah's workshops have already sold out! We'll have a chat and see if she can add some more dates for later in the year.
