Team 2012 Appearance













On Wednesday, my team-mate Sophie Troiano and I did an appearance at Lord’s Cricket Ground for Team 2012 presented by Visa. Team 2012 is the official support programme for British athletes. It aims to raise up to £25 million to support the coaching and training of the group of 1,200 athletes who will make up Team GB and Paralympics GB in London 2012.

Sophie and I kicked off a seminar for Team 2012 with a fencing demonstration in the pavilion at Lord’s. We then got up on stage for a quick interview about our training, our life as athletes and our ambitions for 2012.

We had a great morning at Lord’s and want to thank Team 2012 for all their support! We even managed to bump into the official team GB mascots Wenlock and Mandeville who were on great form! Check out the photographs of our encounter above.
