It's been a busy couple of weeks of competition with the Edinburgh team challenge on the 6th and the Cadet and junior nationals in Nottingham over the 12/13th.

It was fantastic to see so many club members forming teams and wonderful that many joined their friends from other clubs to make joint teams.

In the Epee we had: Fifth Valley🥈, I D K (FVF/WFFC), The three Musketeers (FVF/Livingston FC) - who won top cadet team, and The Spinach munchers.

In the Foil it was: Chronos and the spark (WFFC/FVF), et Touché Brutus and Lunge Bob Squarespants - winners of the coveted best team name 😁.

At nationals the Cadets were up first with Jonathan finishing 12th in the Epee, and Hector in the foil making a solid effort in his first cadet event with 3 wins in the poule, unfortunately losing his first d.e.

On Sunday Cailean joined Jonathan in the junior Epee. Jonathan managed two wins in the poule, Caileans single win not quite being enough to make the cut, missing out by one place.

Top result for the weekend goes to Lucas who won Gold 🥇 in the U14 epee! Lucas put in a strong performance all day and bravely battelled through a painful cramp in the final to eventually win 12-10.

Well done to all our competitors who stepped up to represent the club. We are incredibly proud of all of you!

A fantastic representation from FVF at the recent Scottish Veterans championship, including one interloper😉
A great result for a number of our fencers with Roz picking up gold in all 3 weapons!
Many thanks to Scottish Fencing for organising, Alison & Chloe for doing DT and everyone else who helped make the event a success

Last week Jonathan and Rob travelled to Italy to take part once again in the Fencing Forge - Piancavallo Fencing Academy. As always they both had a fantastic time working with a huge number of amazing coaches and fencers. With six hours of training a day it was an intense week of bouting, lessons, physical preparation and match analysis.

On Wednesday Jonathan and his Italian teammate Davide both put in a solid effort and managed to secure victory in the doubles competition - and yes they did pair up the tallest cadet with the shortest junior 😆. Davide would go on to win the individual competition on Friday as well, proving size doesn't matter!

While the weather wasn't quite as nice as last year (lucky we're an indoor sport!) there was still the opportunity for a spot of hill walking as well.

Finally, the week had an amazing end with the news that Jonathan has been selected for the GBR cadet squad travelling to Budapest in October! A fantastic opportunity for his first year as a Cadet, congratulations Jonathan!

Many thanks again to Fencing Forge for a great week, and we're already looking forward to next years camp 😄
