WELCOME TO COUPE CURACAO.

Dear Friends,

We hereby gladly invite you to the 4th. International Friendship Veterans Fencing Tournament, Coupe Curaçao 2013. Which will be held in April 5-7th, 2013, here in Willemstad, Curaçao.

We are working towards a vacation combining it with a most relaxed and friendly tournament on our beautiful island. A chance to meet other veterans fencers, which you might not meet regularly.

Looking forward to have a bigger and better tournament, to welcome back our friends and meeting new ones.
