Former Great Britain international Marius Dobel-Ober has been named as the new head coach at Truro Fencing Club.
The club, which has produced four Olympians, has recently been taken over by a firm spearheaded by former Truro head coach and Team GB Olympic coach Jon Salfield.
Dobel-Ober will be based at Truro School's Cornwall Fencing Centre.
The last British Olympian to come from the club was James Honeybone in 2012 while Brazil's Marta Baeza trained at the club ahead of her home Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro four years later.
Dobel-Ober says he has a twin mission of getting more people into the sport and coaching those who could one day compete at the highest level:
