Mischa Boorman | Sport

I started climbing about 7 years ago after giving it a go at a birthday party at our local climbing gym in Mount Maunganui. I’m passionate about climbing because of the continuous challenge it presents in problem-solving and pushing personal boundaries. I am grateful to have the opportunity to travel throughout NZ and overseas to participate in competitions. I recently represented NZ in youth competitions held in Australia, USA and New Caledonia. I’m dedicated to training and working towards future goals. I hope to compete in an International Federation of Sport Climbing World Cup Competition in the near future.
I enjoy the supportive and encouraging community of fellow climbers in both competition and during outdoor adventures. I love an outdoor mission, climbing with friends and exploring new rock. When I’m not training, climbing or talking about climbing I coach climbing! It’s great working with young local climbers and seeing them progress and getting excited about the sport.
