Whitchurch Fencing Club

Yet another international visiting fencer chooses Whitchurch Fencing Club !

by our Special Reporter, Paul Stelb

An epee sword club that's rapidly becoming the destination of choice for young international competitive epeeists visiting Cardiff.

Adding to a recent visit by an Argentinian national youth team member, Muscat-based Jacob, during a visit to family in Wales, sought us out to refine and expand his technique and experience.

Competitions in Malaysia and Thailand, as an Under 14 youth, had Jacob stretching our older, experienced, fencers to their limits.

His evening was rounded off with a free one-to-one tuition by our highly experienced Level 3 coach, Lyndon Martin recently honoured with a British Fencing Lifetime Achievement Award by the BFA, our governing body.
