| At the recently concluded Hwa Chong fencing competition, Blade Club fencers again performed well. This competition was banded by age groups (though some groups were merged due to a lack of fencers), so there were actually 10 events, spread over all 6 categories of weapons. Blade Club fencers, most of them representing their own schools, took part in 8 of these 10 events. Of these 8, we won 5 Golds, 3 Silvers, and 4 Bronzes - our fencers placed 1st or 2nd in all of the events they took part in. In fact, each of the 2nd place finishers only lost by 1 point in some really close finals. So congratulations to everyone for fighting well and the excellent results! |
Yet another competition over another weekend in December. This time, its the Duxton Plains Invites 2009, organized by the Duxton Plains fencing club. This was an open event catered mostly to students and young adults. Our fencers managed 4 Golds, 3 Silvers, and 2 Bronzes out of 6 events. This event was made a little more exciting because the 1st and 2nd place fencers in each weapon group could play off in a mixed direct elimination for FIE fencing equipment prizes. One of our foilists walked away with a brand new FIE mask, and another epeeist won himself a new blade.  |
| Our fencers did well at the Raffles Invites 2009, getting 3 Golds, 3 Silvers, and 6 Bronzes out of 6 events. This was a competition for student fencers mostly in the 17-20 age range (JC, poly, and university). Some of the fencers that missed out on the Gold at the recent Ngee Ann competition managed solid wins this time round. We applaud their hard work and perserverance! |
Blade Club fencers did extremely well at the Ngee Ann Polytechnic Open 2009, getting 4 Golds, 2 Silvers, and 2 Bronzes out of 6 events. This was an open competition, comprising mostly students aged 17-20 (JC, poly, and university). Despite being an Open competition, Blade Club entered all of the youngest fencers in the competition. (The youngest were 9, 11, 12 and 14, but between them these young fencers won 2 Silvers!) We congratulate all of our winners! |
