max Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Husayn Rosowsky, a foilist born and brought up in Sheffield has been picked to represent Great Britain at the Olympics. Husayn, who went to Tapton School fenced and trained at Sheffield Buccaneers has been given one of the 10 places in the Olympic GB fencing squad. He also fenced at my club, Sheffield Sword, and we're all very proud of his achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubydazzler Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Close, but no cigar! 40-45. They gave the Italians, the World No 1 team, a run for their money though. Well done, guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
