Swindon Fencing is now affiliated with Shrivenham fencing club.

The southern section are looking for fencers for the Veterans Winton
Cup on the 11-12 September. You will need to be over 40 and a member of
the British Veterans Fencing (http://www.veterans-fencing.co.uk/). The
membership fee is not expensive at £15. The Winton Cup is an
inter-region fencing competition held over two days. On the Saturday
evening there is normally a formal dinner. The weekend is great fun and
we encourage you to come along (even if you can only make one day that
is fine too). Please contact Austen Rose or Mike Bradbury for more
details.

A number of people have been asking about ordering hoodies etc.
If you are interested, drop a line so we can look at numbers, cost and delivery time.
The design will remain the same as last time.

What is a Training day

These are geared towards fencers who wish to learn how to train in a correct manner but at a county and regional level. If you are already at this level of fencing these sessions will help maintain and expand your current knowledge and skill base.

Am I Good Enough

If you think you are, then maybe you are. If you're not sure then try it and find out, you may be surprised.
