FTC announced on 22 October that three of its athletes had been selected for Hungary’s 28-member team for the Youth Olympic Games in Dakar. Épée fencer Lotti Horváth and beach handball players Ádám Kalhammer and Flórián Ördög will travel to Senegal. According to the club’s announcement, all three took the Olympic oath on Wednesday.
Two sports, two separate competition schedules
Horváth will fence on 10 November, with the women’s épée medals decided that day. The beach handball tournament runs from 9 to 13 November. The International Fencing Federation confirms that Horváth retained her cadet world title in 2026 after first winning it in 2025.
The Games run from 31 October to 13 November. The IOC’s official page says this will be the first Olympic sporting event staged in Africa. BSR has therefore added it as a separate calendar event; more Olympic coverage is available in the archive.
