2019 Cadet Winton Report

CADET WINTON CUP 14TH-15TH DECEMBER 2019 by Kate Morwell-Neave

The Cadet Winton this year was enjoyed by all that attended and we managed a very credible second after the scores had been verified, there were four teams tied till the very last fight of the competition! Our foil teams excelled and won individual trophies as well as both team, the ladies only conceding 7 fights all weekend, a truly magnificent effort. The teams were as follows and I want to personally congratulate all of them for a brilliant effort. A special mention has to made top Georgia Silk who not only picked up the individual foil trophy but also beat the number one ranked sabre as she valiantly stood in for Amelie on the Sunday, a truly brilliant performance at 5-2!

I would like to thank you my support team who were indispensable and I hope will be up for a repeat performance in 2020!
