PREFACE

A warm welcome at the National Military Championship Fencing and the international team competition 2017!

This Championship is again a special one due to the cooperation with the Royal Military Fencing Association (KMSV).

I am grateful toCommander Brigadier Matthijssen, C-11 AASLT Bde and Locationmanager Maj Prinsand his personnel who were willing to host this event.

The cooperation with the KMSV ensures a very professional technical execution. This week the annual KMSV competition on all weapons takes place too and the last two days we will organize an Open CISM Team Competition on sword. We are very happy to welcome various teams of NATO countries that will participate in this competition. The fencing sport deserves new initiatives in order to strengthen the ties with the military organization. Do not forget that it all started with the military in the past.

Again we will have a strong competition between both male and female teams but at the end of the day the fencers hopefully will have experienced that “friendship through sports” isone of the most important targets of the CISM organisation. Do enjoy your stay in The Netherlands at the Oranje barracks in Schaarsbergen.

I wish everyone a very successful National Military Championship and international team competition during this week.

At last an Open CISM team competition on sword organized on Wednesday the 17th and Thursday the 18thof May will conclude this week.

International male and female teams will meet each other at the pistes in order to compete which team and which individual military fencers are the best. It will be again a competition on a very high level like previous years. The Dutch CISM delegation in close cooperation with the KMSV will guarantee a spectacular week of military fencing where young officers are able to participate as fencer or as spectator too.
