Stephen Brown of Friends of Grosvenor Fencing Club is the new Under 18 British Foil Champion!
Forty-seven fencers took part in this event which saw Stephen beat Isaac Mulcahy 15-7 in the first semi-final and John Feaster overcome Alan Lozovik 15-11 in the second.
Mihai Rascu oversaw the gold medal match. After the opeing period John was leading 9-6. The second period began with a stunning fight back from Stephen and a failed video appeal from John meant Stephen was able to draw level at 13-13. Stephen scored again to take the lead for the first time in the match before John levelled at 14-14. A fantastically sharp attack from Stephen saw him take the title 15-14.
Many congratulations to Stephen on this fantastic result.
