Truro School Crowned Best Sabre-Fencing School in the Country

A 13 strong team travelled to Crystal Palace in London last week to compete in the largest fencing competition in the country, the Public Schools’ Fencing Championships.

This year we dominated every category our fencers entered and won both the Brian Howes trophy and Johnson cup, securing our position yet again as the number 1 public school at sabre fencing in the country. Full individual results are as follows:

Boys’ Senior Sabre	Bertie Holdsworth- Gold Luke Haynes- Silver Alex Boote- Bronze
Boys’ Junior Sabre	Darcy Holdsworth – Gold Jack Wong – Silver Max Cromie – 7th
Boys’ Mount-Haes Sabre	Roman Norris – Bronze Sam Cox – 14th George Livsey – 15th
Girls’ Senior Sabre	Maia Fashokun – Gold Hannah O’Reilly – Silver Lily Wood – Bronze Jess Jones – 11th

The combined points score of the individual results was then put towards the team trophies and our results were all the more impressive as we only competed on one of the three days and in only in one weapon category.
