If you can’t watch because you are at work or going out and if you have an iPhone you can keep upto date with the live scores as they happen by the app designed & developed by Tim Hatch. It’s called “IFSC Boulder” and can be downloaded here; http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ifsc-boulder/id616662988?mt=8

Full information about the Vail event can be found here; (just remember the UK is & 7 hours ahead) http://egw.ifsc-climbing.org/2013/13_WC_VA.pdf

If you use Twitter the hashtag #IFSCwc is used to keep upto date. Post or comment on the competition.

This weekend also sees the first round of the IFSC European Youth Championships (lead), at Ratho, Edinburgh, where 16 members of Team GB will be competing

I am pretty sure the event is not being webcast, I can’t find any information on the IFSC Site or the Ratho site to say it is being webcast, if anyone knows any differently please let me know.

Tim Hatch, in the same way he developed the App to keep track of the scores during the senior Bouldering Team Competitions, he has modified the app to keep track of the scores during the Youth Competitions. The app can be downloaded for the iPhone from the App Store, it works on the iPad its just smaller.

The app is called “IFSC Youth” and can be downloaded here;
