Alhjadis Banderas, president of the Cuban Fencing Federation, added to the JIT publication that the competition will take place in the Costa Rican capital from April 4 to 7.

Veranes exhibits more laurels in international competitions of rank, such as the individual and team crowns in the XXIV Central American and Caribbean Games of San Salvador 2023 and the third place in the XIX Pan American Games of Santiago 2023. Gavilan won individual silver and team bronze medals at San Salvador 2023.
