ABOUT ME

My name is Victor Alvares de Oliveira - 42nd world ranked - Olympian at Paris 2024

Franco-Cape Verdean athlete born in Reims, preparing for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games.

This adventure with fencing began when I was 7 years old. I started with foil thinking I was D'Artagnan and never let go.

It became a way of life. I then moved to Paris where I am now based with my team to advance in the demands of high-level competition.

After experiencing this world and its best athletes, I wanted to use my potential and qualities by representing the colors of Cape Verde.

My vision

Having the drive to grow through the opportunity of making good decisions. Committing completely, embracing the process and its rules. Maintaining balance within imbalance.

Part of the recipe for evolving as a human being, through and beyond all possibilities!

A sports - business - artistic mentality that allows one to dare question the world through vision and action for evolution!

My mission

After competing in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, my goal is to qualify and perform at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics!

Being an athlete has become a lifestyle to progress in high-level requirements. The Olympics provide extraordinary spotlight in a special moment in time. Unparalleled experience and outlook.

I want to fully embrace this opportunity. It's my athletic and social challenge.
