While he is on the British para-climbing team, there is little SIGCOV in any of the main climbing RS on him (neither British, nor international, per WP:NCLIMB), and zero SIGCOV in any national British quality non-climbing RS either. All his refs are passing mentions on results in competitions. As yet, no real GNG I can see, unfortunately. Aszx5000 (talk) 23:35, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete guy seems super cool but also relatively unknown, hopefully British press covers him in the future but until then not notable enough. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 01:49, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Being on the British paraclimbing team is no more inherently notable than being on the British tiddlywinks team. The bottom line is whether the subject meets the GNG or not. He doesn't. Ravenswing 16:35, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Subject doesn't quite reach NATHLETE yet as he has no record of international medals. However, being a member of the British national team probably signals that international competition is in his future, so TOOSOON applies. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:02, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above and WP:HOLE. NYC Guru (talk) 11:36, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
