EFC Luxembourg
Back in 2017 this event was a dry run for Luxembourg to host a FIE Junior World Cup.
EFC Belgrade - Belgrade Open
In 2021 the Belgrade Fair hosted the event - a large complex of event halls next to the Sava river on the outskirts of the city.
EFC Thessaloniki
One of the smaller competitions on the calendar, but one I'd definitely recommend to anyone looking to get some more International experience.
Coupe du Monde Basel - Trophée de Bâle
Top tier competion. great venue, plenty of hotels nearby and some wonderful places to eat.
A Look Back At Epee Fencing in 2023
As 2023 comes to an end, I thought it would be interesting to looks at some of the key stats from the last 12 months. Although entries are still down on pre-covid times, there was a significant increase in competition participation when compared with 2022. Domestic competition activity for 2023 rose from 1619 fencers in […]
Sussex County Youth Championships 2023
A competition I've not been involved with before, so it'll be interesting to see how it goes and if we can build this up to be comparable to the Surrey Youth Championships.

The venue is now settled at the excellent Triangle Leisure Centre in Burgess Hill after we lost Whitgift School due to a […]
Fencing Club Profiles & Recent Results

Fast forward to now, several years […]
Youtube Finals Videos Added To Epee Results
I recall a few years ago I thought it would be nice to see competition videos next to the results listings but never actually got round to sorting it out. As it goes, there aren't that many domestic finals videos on youtube, but there are enough to make it a worthwhile feature I think, so […]
Challenge Wratislavia - Performance Breakdown By Country & Age Group
I can't say for certain, but it can't be far from the truth, Challenge Wratislavia is one of the biggest International youth fencing competitions in the world. It's been in and out of favour as a selection event with England Fencing over the past few years, but rewind a few years and this is what […]
