The 2024 Southern Region Senior Championships are over and it is time to celebrate all who took part. This year the event got moved to a new venue, Altwood School in Maidenhead.
40 fencers stepped on the 7 pistes prepared by the volunteers from Luso International Fencing. A great, friendly atmosphere and cakes prepared by the volunteers made for a good day of fencing and fun.
There was not much difference in terms of participants from last year when a total of 42 fencers took part in the championships. A major difference was in the ending time of the event, where last year the last competition (Men's sabre) ended at 5.42pm, this year at 4pm everything was already packed away and the last few volunteers were cleaning the venue. The Women's Foil event doubled the number of participants, going from 4 in 2023 to 8 this year. Men's foil kept the same number of participants while Men's Epee, Men's Sabre and Women's Epee lost 2 fencers each, with Men's Epee being again the most attended event.
