Sport Specific Information

When and where did you begin this sport? She took up the sport in 2008.

Why this sport? "Mum saw an advert at school about a fencing group. It turned out she had also fenced a long time ago, and I wondered what it was. I remember at the very beginning, I didn't really like training, a lot of things didn't work out, and the coach was not happy. I used to come home and think, 'Another session, and that's it, I'm leaving'. My interest really grew after I once watched older guys training. They fenced so well. My eyes lit up, I wanted to be like them, to fence like them and be even better."
