BUCS Big Wednesday Preview
The University of Birmingham is set to make a major impact at BUCS Big Wednesday, with Women’s Fencing and four Squash teams competing for national titles.
Fencing: Women’s Team Eyes National Trophy
The Women’s Fencing team has reached the National Trophy Final, marking a huge achievement for the squad. Their journey has been defined by hard work, strong performances, and relentless preparation, and they now have their sights set on lifting the trophy.
“We are incredibly excited to take part in Big BUCS Wednesday. It’s an incredible achievement for the team, and we can’t wait to demonstrate the hard work we’ve put in all season,” said co-captain Kylie Savoye. “Fencing isn’t always in the spotlight, so this is a fantastic opportunity to share our love for the sport and show what we can do.”
The team will also have Terri, their beloved fencing mascot, by their side as they take on the final challenge of the season.
Squash: Championship and Trophy Finals Await
It’s an equally exciting time for Birmingham Squash, with both Men’s and Women’s 1st teams competing in the National Championship Finals, while the Men’s and Women’s 2nd teams battle for the National Trophy.
The squads have delivered standout performances throughout the season, and this final stage represents a chance to cement Birmingham’s status as a dominant force in university squash.
Head of Performance Squash, Jonathan Tate, expressed his pride in the teams:
“This is a huge moment for the club, and it’s a testament to the commitment and drive of our players. Competing across both the Championship and Trophy finals shows the depth of talent in Birmingham Squash, and we’re ready to give it everything on the court.”
