World Wheelchair Fencing Championships - day 3

Wheelchair fencing championships

Wednesday saw day three of the World Wheelchair Fencing Championships from Sicily with Women's Sabre and Men's Epee events on centre stage for the last of the scheduled individual competitions.

I have been busy with TV commentary and introducing medal ceremony presentations on the public address system.

Some exciting matches took place with the men's category A Epee Final (receiving huge support from the crowd in the finals hall), which finished with Pender of Poland taking the World Champion crown over Noble of France 15-8.

Today we start the team events with Women's Foil and Men's Sabre, which always gets the crowds going as national pride is at stake!
