You are the enthusiasm that keeps this team excited for the new year that lies ahead!

In an individual direct elimination bout, we go to 15 points. When the score goes to 14-14, we get only a few seconds to prepare. Losing the point means packing up and going home, winning means getting to advance to the next round. You're there screaming with us for that final winning point!

You got us in love with our sport. You were sitting by the sidelines cheering us on, when neither of us had an idea of what was going on. Your support is vital to our success!

You are a key member to this team! We need members like you so we do well at competitions and bring home the gold!

Your leadership qualities and top notch fencing skills are what we need to teach our team to get better and excel!

You are the best of the best! Under pressure in the most critical moments is when you always pull through for this team!

Your incredibly generous contribution shows an unmatched level of dedication to ensuring the success of our team. We would be unable to thank you enough, but we sure will try!
