Round Two - Summary

Round Two - Summary

The perfect run up to Christmas...

Round 2 of the 3rd season at High School of Glasgow once again showed us once again why this is one of our favourite venues, thanks to our fantastic sponsors and loads of brilliant volunteer refs and officials.

Numbers are again a bit down a bit on last year, but if we thought that the last round drew people in from far flung places - (people travelled from Shetland in the north to Aldershot in the south  for YDS Rd1) - we capped that this time with two fencers coming all the way from Singapore!!
We think thats a record that may last quite a while....

Massive thanks are due to all of you - helpers, photographers, referees, chaperone buddies and of course the parents... Without your help we simply couldn't run the competition...
We are however always looking for new helpers - the Foundation relies on our volutneers so don't be shy - we're a friendly bunch and if you really can't bear the tension of watching your kids on the piste we will always find you something to do ;)

Allstar UK - our series sponsors helped us make the YDS happen in the first place, and continue to make it possible for the fencers to enjoy this competition series through their unending support - thanks Bob & Paul and all your team!

Scottish Fencing - who make their equipment available to run the comps - your ongoing support to the series is key to the YDS success, and we are very grateful.

On behalf of all the fencers who have benefitted thanks to your collective generosity and input - we'd like to thank you all.

You folks are making the changes we aim able to deliver to the young fencers of Scotland possible.

The F4SF Council.
