Helping people with disabilities is always very welcome. But we were very impressed by Mr. Kästlen’s idea of using training in the complex sport of fencing to improve the mobility, coordination and concentration of these people after he left CSC-Jäklechemie. So much so, in fact, that we are very happy to support the Fürth Musketeers, which he founded, so that the planned expansion of the Fürth Musketeers’ program can also be implemented.
Following the ECS 2015 in Nuremberg, Dr. Hög and Martin Vieregge-Heyng took advantage of the close proximity to visit the state training base for foil and epee in Fürth, where the Musketeers meet on Thursdays, and experienced a rousing training session. Especially after the exhausting days at the trade fair, it was nice to see that not only business rules the world, but that sport conveys an enthusiasm and joie de vivre that is not geared towards economic success.
We are delighted to see how Paul C. Kästlen’s team brings a wonderful sport to disabled people who are often unable to pursue a traditional career, helping them to improve their health and enjoy life. Our support is certainly in good hands there!
We wish the Musketeers in Fürth all the best for the future!
