Fencing

NTU have good representation across the event, with competitors in pink for Badminton, Fencing, Climbing, Karate, Athletics and Swimming.


In Fencing last year’s Champion Danielle Lawson will have her eye on the prize once again, as she looks to defend her title in the Women’s Epee.


2018 has been a fantastic year for Danielle, as she was selected to represent GB in both Junior and Senior European and World events.


NTU Fencing are taking their biggest team for a number of years, backing up a successful season which has seen both men’s and women’s teams win respective leagues.

The competition this year looks to be one of the strongest seen in years, with many current and ex England internationals taking part, so an excellent opportunity for our students to test themselves against the best in the country

Tom Armstrong - NTU Coaching and Competition Manager

NTU Badminton are continuing a traditionally strong representation at BUCS nationals, looking to replicate some of last year’s performances; such as men’s doubles quarter finals, and ladies doubles last 16.

NTU Climbing are taking 10 students to the competition, which is the biggest team for the last three years. The group have a top 30 finish firmly set in sight as they look to showcase new talent and top last year’s outcome.

In Karate, Team Kumite have a good chance of landing a hit to make headway in the rankings. While in Athletics Daisy Barnes will be hoping to make her mark in Pole Vault. Reynold Banigo is unable to compete in Long Jump, as he'll be facing off against some of the best in the world at the Muller Indoor Grand Prix. Best of luck!

NTU Swimming are taking the biggest team yet in recent years and among them Mollie Wright is determined to make a splash to go one better, having only just missed out on medal position in the short course back in November.

We’d like to wish all NTU competitors a huge good luck, you can see a full competitor list below.
