The gang are all together again and we’re edging towards the end of the Olympic qualification process which means some fencers will be celebrating guaranteeing their place in Tokyo while others will be heartbroken. Sean tracks the foil action from Cairo (men’s) and Kazan (women’s) as the team places are sorted out for the Olympics and some fencers do themselves the world of good for individual qualification. Kate gets very excited about the men’s sabre in Warsaw and finds her thing to have a minor rant about and Gav adds to the short list of fencing wizards Also, Gav gets a new follower on Instagram. You should follow him too. Plus, The Coolest Fencer on the Planet and what’s coming up next.
