Further to our recent blog update re our fencing sponsee, Phoebe Newton-Hughes, we’re absolutely over the moon to share this update that her mum posted on facebook today:
So after two months back in training and some mixed results Phoebe has made her way up to 6th in the British U20 rankings and has been invited to represent GB in the individual World Cup in Udine and the individual and team World Cup in Zagreb both of which take place in January. Phoebe’s presence at these competitions will be funded with some of the money provided by her Heywood Township Grant and we would like to express our thanks to them and Alex Gage for their continuing support of her fencing journey.
