The Northern Ireland Girl’s fencing team secured a bronze medal at the recent Sainsbury’s UK School Games, held at the English Institute of Sport, Sheffield, (for the second year running – unprecedented in NI Girl’s foil history). Sullivan Upper was represented by Victoria Duxbury and Rachel Philpott, pictured receiving their medals.
Both girls have also been selected to represent Northern Ireland in the upcoming Senior 5 Nations tournament in November, to be held at the University of Edinburgh.
This also follows early season success for them at the South of Ireland Open in Cork, with Victoria gaining 2nd place (after a narrow 15-14 loss in extra time) and Rachel coming 3rd.
