TEAM VICTORIA
U15/U17 National Championships
The U15 and Cadet (U17) National Championships are being held 9 - 13 July 2009 in Brisbane.
This is a fantastic opportunity for young fencers to experience national competition and the Queensland Fencing Association is
determined to put on a good event. Club rivalry can be put aside in the interest of being part of the Victorian State Squad, in addition to the individual events, we will enter as many teams as numbers permit.
To prepare for the Championships fencers are advised:
* to enter as many State competitions as they can manage (even above their own age group)
* to have individual coaching
* to attend team development opportunities like the State camp and
* to participate in Club training as often as they can.
The experience of being part of a coached squad at an exciting event will then be a good one regardless of final position. You will meet and make new friends from other clubs and states during state training opportunities and at the competition. Previous participants have enjoyed the event and see it as an opportunity to train better and smarter for the following year and come back with greater determination and skill.
To compete in the U15/U17 National Championships please nominate yourself as a member of the Team Victoria U15 and U17 Squad via the Fencing Victoria website. (available shortly)
