Whitchurch Fencing Club
Novices & Improvers competition - and the winner is.....
Another busy evening,2nd December 2025, for the club, as 6 club members fought it out in a `Novices & Improvers` contest.
Format : Poule Unique, 5 hits, and scoring against 'Total Victories', with tied places being decided on Hits Scored minus Hits Received Indicators.
Referees : Club Organiser : Michael, with Technical Assistance from Marc Walford.
Once again a high standard of fencing was evident, with good performances from newcomers Emil & Charlie, and more experienced fencer, Mallory. Welcome back too to Emily after an absence of some months, and looking like she had never been away ! Overall strong performances from several competitors were evident, with only the slightest number of points separating them.
Very well done to winner, Emil with 3 victories, just edging ahead from Mallory on Indicators. Overall, an exciting & very close match.
More fencing in 2026 ! - Fencing resumes Tuesday, 6th January.
