Sport Climbing scaled another peak at the LVIII Panam Sports General Assembly today, after a vote secured the sport’s place in the programme of the Pan American Games Santiago 2023.
IFSC President Marco Scolaris joined IFSC Pan American Council President Maria Izquierdo for the announcement, which took place virtually during a two-day assembly.
The XIX Pan American Games are scheduled to take place from October 20 to November 5, 2023 in the Chilean capital of Santiago, which was selected as the host city during the Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) General Assembly in November 2017. As the largest multi-sport event in the Americas, over 6800 athletes will participate in the 19th edition of the Games, competing in 38 different sports. The slogan of the 2023 Pan American Games is “Follow your passion”.
