We are excited to announce that Bas Verwijlen has joined the Fencing Pictures team!

We are proud sponsors of this promising young athlete with Fencing Pictures Brand fencing equipment, including the FP FIE Mask, Jackets, Weapons, Blades, and more. (Learn more about Fencing Pictures Brand Equipment!)

We first met this fiery epee fencer from the Netherlands when he took 3rd place at the 2005 World Championships, upsetting past Olympic Champ Marcel Fischer (Switzerland) in the final seconds of his top-8 bout. He is currently 5th in the world.

Read a January interview.

Bas is very supportive of our efforts to promote the sport of fencing. He says:

I think FP is a great initiative for this sport because fencing is getting bigger and bigger every year. I am very happy with the work you do, because it was always hard to find footage and pictures from the big events, and now there is one place where people can find it. ...

I believe that FP will be of great importance for the fencing sport in general.
