Manx fencer Thomas Corlett has been selected as part of England Fencing's Tomorrow's Achievers team to attend an international competition in Paris.

The 14-year-old St Ninian's High School student started fencing when he was nine and has already achieved a series of impressive domestic results.

Tomorrow's Achievers spokesman Ray Stafford said: "There's no doubt Thomas shows great potential.

"We're very pleased to have him in our Paris team."

The Paris competition is attended by hundreds of fencers, representing more than 20 countries.
