Getting young women to the Fencing Commonwealth Games

Christchurch, Canterbury

Claire Cooper and Tamsyn Campbell are two of New Zealand's strongest and most experienced fencing athletes and both have recently been selected to represent New Zealand at the Commonwealth fencing championships to be held in London in August 2022. They have both competed in World Cups and Grand Prix's in Europe and are also representing New Zealand in Korea in preparation for commonwealths this June. They are both full time uni students with Claire now studying her masters in speech language pathology and Tamsyn studying both Sport Science and psychology. Both girls are fully self funded full time athletes who are trying their best to work to raise funds so they can make it to this competition in London.
