Warm up

DE 13-15

Overall a very disappointing competition for me. Considering the standard of the event my poule was tougher than expected. The three bouts I lost could have gone either way. The DE I threw away.

What worked.
Preparation was good. I arrived in good time, wasn't tired,most of  my equipment was working and I had a good warm-up.

What didn't

One of my foils failed a weighst test. I must text before the competition and after every bout.
I need to go in to DE with more of a plan especially against a fencer I know.
More confidence in my attacks.

2.(A) 10-15
3.(B) 12-15
4.(A) 12-15
5. (A) 7-15


Lesson

What worked well:
Analysing my oppoent and looking for an error to exploit. Formulating tactics of the back of that

What needs works:
Need to focus on a broader range of option and not just focus on a single action.
Patience, set up, attempt, break off and repeat as needed until I create the opportunity.
