Coach Avery Bonham Holderness-Roddam and coach Daniel Muller recently attended the Sydney International Fencing Camp 2026 - Fourth edition with local athletes.

It was an amazing week of coach professional development and exposure to the Di Ciolo school of fencing; whilst making friends from across the world (Guam, New Zealand and various Australian states).

The Association is especially grateful to Sydney Uni Sport, the volunteers, Maestro Enrico Di Ciolo, Maestra Virginia Di Franco, Ted Elliott and the international mentors Giovanni Leccese, Diletta Gramigni, Akseli Heinamaa and Tommaso Chiappelli for such an incredibly valuable event.
