In 2020, Fencing Ireland published a series of interviews with a number of the most successful members in the history of fencing in this country. As part of this series two women, Siobhan Byrne and Nuala McGarrity, were interviewed. Each of their stories provides a great insight into the ways women not only contribute to fencing in Ireland but also set the bar for all others to follow. They each managed to do so in different areas of fencing - Siobhan primarily as a high performance fencer and Olympian, and Nuala as a talented and dedicated administrator.
