Sports climbing Olympics qualification No decision will be made by the end of qualifying, November 29, 15:45

With regard to the right to participate in the Tokyo Olympics for sports climbing, Japanese competition groups are suing international competition groups in CAS = Sports Arbitration Court. I understood that there was. Six Japanese athletes will participate in the Olympic qualifying, but if you keep the current status, you will not be given the right to participate.

The Japan Mountain and Sports Climbing Association will participate in the Tokyo Olympics for sports climbing, such as the World Championship that ended in August and the Olympic qualifying held from 28th of this month to 1st of next month. The selection criteria for representatives are based on the interpretation that a maximum of two men and women can be selected from a number of players who have earned.

However, since the International Sports Climbing Federation changed the interpretation that was the same as Japan and changed it in October, it was interpreted that the Japanese Olympic representative was decided by two men and women who got the right to participate in the World Championship. The Japanese Association filed a lawsuit with CAS for the cancellation of the interpretation of the League of Nations, because the representative selection race would not be completed.

The Japan Association had asked CAS to make a ruling by the 1st of the month after the Olympic qualifying ends, but the Japan Association said that the United Nations did not agree to a quick procedure on the 29th. It has been clarified that there is no prospect of arbitration.

In the Olympic qualifying, if you enter the 6th place or more for each gender, you can get the right to participate in the Olympics, and 6 men and women from Japan participate.

In the current situation where no CAS ruling is issued, even if a Japanese player enters the higher rank, the right to participate is not given.

The Association of Japan says, “I will continue to do my best to accept our claims”.

On the other hand, according to the officials, according to the officials, CAS's ruling may come out at the earliest because it shows the idea of ​​complying with CAS procedures within the year.
