Values & Statutes

Statutes

The past two decades have been a period of spectacular growth for Sport Climbing and the IFSC. 

The IFSC is a young and ever evolving International Federation founded on modern sport values and the unique principles of climbing, cultivating them alongside the developments of our time.

The current Statutes were approved by an Extraordinary General Assembly vote of the IFSC Member Federations on 31 October 2023.
