The Susan D'Onofrio Cup, hosted by Fioretto Fencing Club, is an annual women's foil championship that pays tribute to the remarkable Susan D'Onofrio. Susan, the wife of Maestro D'Onofrio and a strong pillar of support for our club, embraced the world of fencing with open arms, even though she never fenced herself. Sadly, she was taken from us at a young age due to Motor Neuron Disease (MND).
This championship holds a special place in our hearts as it not only celebrates the talent and skill of female foil fencers but also commemorates Susan's enduring legacy. Each year, fencers of all ages gather together to compete for the highly coveted Susan D'Onofrio Cup. The atmosphere is filled with camaraderie and a thriving spirit, encapsulating the true essence of the sport.
We invite you to be a part of this extraordinary tournament and witness firsthand the awe-inspiring abilities of these exceptional women fencers. Join us as we honour Susan's memory and lend our continuous support to Fioretto Fencing Club's unwavering commitment to the sport.
