The biggest fencing event in the world-2019 Summer Nationals is over. 10 days-12 hours each day of amazing fencing!
We all came back exhausted, but recharged with positive emotions and plans for the next season.
This year we didn't get medals, even that we were very close to the medal rounds some of the days. I am extremely proud of all

Another great tournament at HFA! Thank you to all referees and volunteers who help us run the events successfully.
How fun is to see the young fencers work hard on the strip and than play and became friend with the same kid they just competed.
Wonderful experience!
