Thomas Allen Athlete Profile

My name is Thomas Allen and I have a dream. It started with the thrills and spills of Star Wars and Zorro and I hope it will become reality when I represent Great Britain at the Olympics.

I was just 11 years old when those fantastic films first turned my thoughts to fencing. They were my inspiration and since then I have dedicated my time to learning and honing the skills I need. It has become a real passion in my life.

I am now 19
TRAINING HARD…
I am currently training at the Sussex House Club in London and over the last year have worked locally in Southampton with the strength and conditioning coach, Chris based at Southampton University TASS Hub, helping me to develop my physical performance specific to my sport.
