Richard Oldcorn (21 February 1938 – 1 June 2022) was a British international fencer. He competed at the 1964, 1968 and 1972 Summer Olympics.[1]
Oldcorn represented England and won a gold medal in the team sabre, at the 1966 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Kingston, Jamaica.[2] [3] [4]
He was last selected to fence for Great Britain at the world championships in Buenos Aires in 1977, although injury prevented his taking part. Thereafter he became team manager, first of the national sabre team then for the entire British fencing team, managing them at the Moscow Olympics in 1980. Although he never won the national sabre championship (his best placing was second) from 1968 till the early 1970s he was the most successful British sabreur in international competition.[5]
