SFPFC '13 - Results from day 1

FiF had 7 fencers at today's P3/4/5 Scottish Fencing Plastic Foil Championships, out of the 30 participants.

All 7 came home medallists : one gold, 5 silver, one bronze.

From North Merchiston, well done to Kalu - Scottish Fencing P5 Champion Boy 2013 - and Katie - P5 Girl Championship Silver medallist.

From Sighthill, Oskar won the P4 Boys Silver medal, in a controversial final.

From Carrickvale, Samuel won the P3 Boys Silver medal, losing narrowly 8-7, and Izzy reached the semi-final to win the P5 Boys Bronze medal, knocked out by the eventual winner, Kalu.

From Craiglockhart, Rosie won the P4 Girls Silver medal.

From Bruntsfield, Ben won the P5 Boys Silver medal, after losing narrowly to Kalu in the final.

Tomorrow the P6 & P7 Championships start at 11am  (bringing the P7 event forward from the original noon check-in).   Make sure you specify "Salle FiF" on your entry forms and Scottish Fencing membership forms - or you'll get charged an extra £12-£15 pounds.
