A brilliant days fencing, with Ryan and Fraser both earning their first fencing medals! Johann just missed out on his own medal losing in the quarter final in a very close match. Vinnie unfortunately finished one place below qualification.
So 12 confirmed Skinners' boys qualified for the British Youth Champs, to be held in Sheffield in May. With another receiving a bye 13 attending is an excellent result!

Challenge Wratislava, March 2024
Ryan: "Poland was a fun experience, getting to explore the city of Wrocław. The city was nice, a lot of little gnomes dotted around, and was old. Unfortunately lots of attractions were closed when we went. The comp was really fun as well, the Hala Orbita looked amazing and the feeling of being in a comp of around 200 people is strange and put the pressure on. The food was nice and exploring the city with Henry and the rest of the squad was fun. Although I didn't get the result I would have liked I really learned a lot. In the end I finished =99th out of 181 fencers in the U13s."
