On the 30th Of January I went to the Leon Paul Junior Fencing Series in Brixton, south London to compete in the epee category. I won every fight in the pools. The pools are the group stages, where all of your fights are taken into account, and you are then given a ranking which is used to determine your seeding for the direct elimination rounds (direct elimination is where if you lose a fight you are knocked out and have to go home).
In the direct elimination I did not lose a fight until I was knocked out by my friend Liam Stigant in the semi-final and so I was given a bronze medal and came 3rd.
