OVERVIEW

The Academy had the privilege of benefitting from visiting consultant Michael Marx, an 8-time US Foil champion and 5-time Olympian. Michael visited the Sports School in 2015 to validate the Fencing Academy’s programme and suggested improvements so as to raise the level of Fencing in Singapore.
Since the start of 2016, fencers have been able to maximise their training hours with a new dedicated fencing hall.

Amita's Gold Charm From Guatemala 2018 FIE Guatemala Junior World Cup Posted: 14 December 2018 There’s a saying “third time’s the charm”, and rightly so for fencer Amita Marie Nicolette Berthier when she won the Women’s Foil gold medal at the 2018 Guatemala Junior World Cup on 18 November 2018. The 2018 edition of International Fencing Federation’s (FIE) world cup event in Guatemala for fencers 20 years old and under was Amita’s third and best showing at the tournament, having finished 6th in 2016 and runner-up in 2017. The former Singapore Sports School student-athlete had a strong run in the elimination rounds, dominated the field of 17 competitors from 12 countries and making light work of her opponents. From the Quarter-Finals to her Final bout, her opponents succeeded in scoring only a maximum of 5 points against her. The 17-year-old foilist’s journey to the top rung of podium was marred by a single loss in the poules when the match ended 4-5 in favour of opponent Sophia Sanchez of Venezuela. The title from Guatemala is Amita’s second Junior World Cup triumph, the first being the Havana Leg in December 2017. |
