Wheelchair Fencing World Championship
Sports are a joy
Wheelchair Fencing World Championship, Eger, 18-23 September 2015
This year Hungary hosts the Wheelchair Fencing
World Championship. We’ll also be present at Dr. Kemény Ferenc arena in Eger,
as a technical sponsor of the event.
The Wheelchair Fencing World Championship in Eger is extremely important for the participants: a gold medal won here is a qualifier for the 2016 Paralympics. 202 athletes from 32 countries will be competing in Eger in individual women’s epee, men’s epee, individual women’s foil, men’s foil, individual women’s sabre, men’s sabre and in team competitions. An inland competition means a lot for the Hungarian team, but any further support could help to reach even better results: it’s worth visiting the event; entrance is free.
Running the championship is helped by local volunteers. Telekom, as a committed supporter of equal opportunities and sports, will bring network and free wifi to the event. We hope several of the Hungarian athletes will be there at the Paralympics, in Rio de Janeiro!
