Gauthier Grumier is the new boss of the French fencing team. The 39-year-old former fencer was until now the assistant manager.

Hugues Obry, ex-manager returned to the fold after the Tokyo Games. But he, on sick leave for the second time this season in February and accused of moral harassment by several of his athletes, ended up submitting his resignation. Frédéric Chotin, technical manager until now in charge of training the fencing masters, has been relaunched in a role of supervising the young Blues.
