The 2017 Singapore Junior Fencing Championships held from the 26th-27th of May have recently concluded and our fencers have brought back amazing results amidst these three days!
In the Men's Sabre Individual event, we managed to claim three out of the top four spots on the podium!

Ron Loh Ken yang and Jorelle See (Representing HCI) both finished the event with a bronze medal! What is amazing is that both of them secure their bronze medal bout by winning their quarter-final match in a convincing manner with a score of 15-5.
