Let's make it happen – in the land of Pharaohs
The Junior & Cadet World Championships 2021 will be held in Cairo on April 3-11
On the 20th of February 2021 the FIE Executive Committee met via video conference and decided the Junior and Cadet World Championships 2021 will be staged in Cairo. The FIE points out that the conditions and requirements put in place in the context of COVID-19 required several months of work and considerable efforts at all levels. Thanks to these measures, the Egyptian Fencing Federation is now honored to welcome young participants deprived of competitions during the past year to the city of pharaohs. The Junior and Cadet World Championships 2021 will start on the 3rd and end on the 11th of April.
Luxembourg is represented by three young athletes: Anna Zens, who has already qualified for the World Championships twice in her sports career, as well as Philipp Zens and Niklas Prinz, who will make their debut in Cairo. All three athletes will compete on the 9th of April.

World Fencing Day
FIE to spend 1,000,000 CHF in COVID-Support
Decisions of the Executive Committee (ComEx)
FIE ComEx decided in its virtual July Meeting to allocate 1,000,000 CHF in support to national federations. The FLE-Board will decide shortly how the support will be distributed in Luxembourg. FLE President Pascal Tesch, who is also a board member of the FIE executive stresses the extraordinary measures taken. “We had to cancel the Junior’s World Championship, that was a very difficult decision to take. With the pandemic still increasing in violence it was however the only reasonable outcome. Thanks to the founds given to the FIE by president Usmanov, we could however distribute a huge support to the federations. Besides we are working tirelessly towards resuming the olympic qualification. We stay optimistic for Tokyo 202One”

Thank you Isabelle and Claude
More than 30 years after making a first appearance in the executive board of the FLE, the CC (Comité Central) Isabelle Deville had decided not to run for office again, concentrating on her new position as president of Escrime Sud. During this periode Isabelle hold various positions mainly being the sports director for the longest time.
Claude Wolter who had been more than 10 years in the position of chief equipment office also had decided to hand over the baton.
We thank Isabelle and Claude for their service and commitment over the last years!
