Another weekend but not just another competition. The Fioretto under 13 challenge is one of only 2 such events we run each year. They are a great opportunity for young and aspiring fencers to get their first experience at competitive fencing and to cross blades with some of the top fencers in the age group. This round was no exception, with a fantastic turn out from Fioretto, 9 fencers in all, and 3 of Victoria's top U13 fencers from 2 other clubs. While the experience gap was sometimes vaste there was plenty of grit to make up for it. The most important thing was that everyone came, saw and walked away with a great experience, if not a medal. |

As the 2009 fencing season draws to it's conclusion, Fioretto's juniors are getting into the action. On the 11th of October 5 of our youngsters took part in the Fencing Victoria junior club challenge. And the results were as great as their efforts. But it doesn't stop there. Young Nick, having competed widely this year in under 13 and under 15 events, including taking the title for the JD U13 Cup in the club, is now packing his bags and looking to Sydney for his next big fencing adventure! |
