ULU's Novices win again!

ULU's novices capped an incredible week for the club yesterday as they defeated UCL to win the UL Novice Team Shield for the second year running. The event was the biggest yet, with 9 teams taking part (including 4 from ULU) and featured many tense matches before Umar, Enrico and Tom were crowned ultimate champions.


The poules saw the two Imperial teams emerge as front runners with some impressive results including a 45-31 victory over ULU 1, but an amazing upsurge in form from the ULU and UCL teams saw Imperial eliminated at the semi final stage, ULU beating their earlier conquerers 45-41.

It all came down to a tense (not to mention noisy) final with our arch rivals, but after Tom put ULU ahead 5-4 in the first bout the team never looked back. Try as they might, the best UCL could do was battle back to equal points before ULU pulled ahead again. Umar scored the final hit to secure a well deserved 45-40 victory and spark scenes of delirious celebration.

Congratulations are due to everyone who fenced for ULU. There was some very impressive fencing going on on all 4 teams, you did us and coach JC proud. Well done!

Final team rankings:
1. ULU 1
2. UCL 1
3. Imperial Fosters
4. Imperial Blackthorn
5. ULU 4
6. ULU 2
7. UCL 2
8. ULU 3
9. UCL 3

Photos and full match scores coming soon...
