“We’re excited to partner with Climbing Escalade Canada for a fourth year of the North American Cup Series!” said Marc Norman, President and CEO of USA Climbing. “We have seen this series grow immensely over the last three years and it continues to provide an entirely unique competition experience for climbers across the Americas.”
“The NACS bridges national events and IFSC World Cups, giving athletes additional stops that are both fun and valuable to their development” said Christiane Marceau, Executive Director of CEC. “For our Canadian contenders, the NACS stops are also opportunities to accumulate CNR points, shaping the Team Canada Selection!”
Participants in the Series must be licensed with and register through their respective National Federations. Detailed information sheets for each event including registration, training availability, time schedules, etc. will be provided a minimum of 30 days prior to each event. Rules for the events will be published to the CEC and USAC websites.
