The fencing association organized a major competition in cash and refuses to report. Organizer: “Pure rage!”

Last fall, the international fencing competition held in Kääriku in Otepää was settled in cash. The participant of the competition considers it suspicious and wants to know what and how much was spent, the organizer says that the questioner is teasing.

This is definitely one chapter in the fencers’ saga, where the relations between coaches and officials have become extremely tense.

No one hides the fact that some of the involved parties have quarreled with others. The members of the Fencing Association seem to be divided into camps, and the meetings are not without banter and sometimes even more sarcastic expressions.

The focus of this story is the Nordic fencing championships that took place in southern Estonia last fall. It is a rotating major event where hundreds of fencers, both from us and from other countries, compete with each other in different age groups. At the heart of this story, however, is money. Specifically, cash and how it was managed.

More than 800 competitors from a total of 11 countries took part in the Nordic Fencing Championships held in Kääriku last year.
