I took tonight the Chair of the London Federation of Sport and Recreation to watch the Mens Team Sabre. His
reaction was that this was the best indoor venue that he had visited and that the presentation of fencing was
superb.

He went onto say that the fencing in the final was also spectacular and showed sport at its very best. In his
view the mens sabre event was one of the most exciting competitions that he had seen for a long time.

Incidentally I got the same feedback from several overseas officials who have been to the Excel.

On a personal note I felt that the sport had been shown in the best possible light and tonight the Koreans demonstrated that you can win not just by being athletic and skilful, but through doing the simple things very well.

I want to congratulate Hilary Philbin and her team of officials and helpers on doing a fantastic and very professional job.
