British Fencing AASE Programme
If you are a 16-18 year old fencer who has completed GCSE year and are ranked in the top 40 (for your age on any national ranking list) you are eligible to apply for the British Fencing AASE programme.
What is AASE?
It is a Level 3 qualification based around Pearson Edexcel qualifications in Achieving Excellence in Sports Performance and Understanding Sports Performance; designed for fencers who have the realistic potential to achieve excellence and are seeking to perform at the highest level. The programme will cover all areas of fencing and this innovative and exciting sporting programme will help you to develop as an athlete and fencer.
Congratulations to 17 year old James Russell who has been selected as part of the GB U20 team to fence in the Luxembourg World Cup in September.
Unfortunately James had a tough time at the 2016-17 Junior U20 Nationals due to taking part in a 50 mile overnight walk 3 nights before with his school. This left him exhausted to the point of collapse in the Last 16 bout, but he managed to continue and went on to finish 6th after putting up a huge effort in the quarter final against the GB #1.
Once again many congratulations to both James and his Coach Steven Paul.

James Russell of Royal Tunbridge Wells Fencing Club wins his first ever Senior Open (at the grand old age of 17 & a bit) at the Bexley Open and takes the Len Camin Cup for 2016
Thanks as always to his guru, mentor and Coach Prof Steven Paul of RTWFC for all his help, patience and instruction in this next step in James' sporting career
