Round Three Summary

We've now reached (and if we are being absolutely accurate) just passed the halfway point of YDS 2008/9 with 3 rounds down and 2 to go. Dundee proved to be something of a revelation for us - with loads of new fencers coming along and some fantastic help on the day.
As always we have to express our massive thanks to all who came along and made it such a great day of fencing again.

Round Three was somethng of an experimental event since there has been a long held view expressed to us that youth fencing competitions outside of the central belt are difficult to run, with low attendance from local fencers.
Clearly no-one told the Dundee, Perth, Aberdeen or Inverness contingents however because we had loads of you there on the day and with our established YDS entries from Glasgow, Edinburgh and even Stockport (no that's not a typo!) it was another great event, with well over 100 fencers over the weekend (we're still adding up as we speak...)

So Dundee is already booked for next years round - after such a great welcome we decided we absolutely HAVE to go back again.

Other real highlights of the weekend were our new DT crew of Caroline Russel and Lorraine Brown - fantastic job ladies!

We even had time to hold our AGM - it did mean things went a bit slack for a half hour (sorry about that), but its done now and normal service will be resumed next month...

Results are below - rankings will be updated shortly and we'll hopefully see you all again on March 21st & 22nd in Stirling for Round Four.
