MK MATCH REPORT (by Team Capn’ Richard R)

SAFC hosted a resurgent Milton Keynes last Thursday – a team who really stepped up their performance last year. They also brought along a full squad of 6, which is rare for away bouts! We fielded strong teams though, with David, James B and myself on Epee; Lisa, JD and Giles on foil. Epee concluded first and SAFC reached the finish line of 5 wins with two more bouts to go, but credit to MK they didn’t let us get any more – finishing 5-4 to SAFC. To win the night we needed our foil teams to win by at least the same margin. Fortunately they were on form and did even better securing a 6-3 win! A fantastic evening of fencing with a great bunch from MK. Final score 11-7 SAFC!!
