The Public Schools Fencing Competition took place over two exciting and competitive days, bringing together talented fencers from various schools. The event was filled with high-level bouts, intense matchups, and impressive displays of skill and determination.

All participants performed exceptionally well, navigating through the pool stages and moving into the direct elimination rounds. The competition was fierce, with many close encounters and remarkable comebacks. One particularly intense match saw Tanish, recovering from a 4-9 deficit to level the score at 9-9 before narrowly losing 9-10 against a strong GB team opponent. Such performances highlighted the resilience and tenacity of the competitors.

Luna achieved an outstanding result, finishing 6th in her age category, demonstrating great skill and consistency throughout the event. Other participants also secured impressive placements, with several fencers making it far into the elimination rounds.

Overall, the competition was a fantastic experience for all involved, providing an opportunity to test their abilities against strong opposition. Congratulations to everyone who took part and represented their schools so well!

Well done to Regina T, Luna C, Allegra H, Tanisha S and Olivia C!
