Three Poules

The Junior Twenty Four is a relaxed day full of fencing for anyone under the age of 15. There are no eliminations, everyone gets a lot of bouts and ends up with a chance of a medal in their final poule (group). The competition consists of three consecutive poules. The first poules are drawn up randomly and each successive poule is drawn based on the results of the previous poule. As the day progresses, the fencers position themselves into poules where they all have a shot at winning a medal.

 

Medals are awarded for the top three in each poule.

 

We have a series prize for the overall winners of the Junior Twenty Four Series. The series trophies are awarded to the best primary school and best secondary school pupil who gain the most points from all of the competitions through the year.

 

Check-in is at 9:30am

Fencing will start at 9:45am

The day finishes by 3:30 pm.

Linlithgow's patron saint is Saint Michael and its motto is St. Michael is kinde to straingers. A statue of the saint holding the burgh coat of arms stands on the High Street.
