The Youth World Climbing Championship gets underway today at the Climbing Hall in Imst, Austria.

As usual the Difficulty and Speed competition is divided into three categories: Junior ('81 - '82), Youth A ('83 - '84) and Youth B ('85 - '86).

Italian hopes of victory in the Youth A category are high as Jenni Lavarda, the defending Italian Champion, placed first in last week's European Cup, held at Imst.
