Update 29/06/2025 – Places for foil are now full. There are a couple of places left for epee and sabre.

Join Hutt Valley Fencing Club July 1 and 2, 2025, 9am to 12pm at Chilton Saint James School in Lower Hutt, Wellington for an exciting mini Fencing Camp.

This camp will be run in 2 streams – one for beginners and one tailored for individuals aged 12 and above, or for those with 2 or more years experience. So if you are over 12 and looking to give fencing a go, or a fencer looking to get better, fitter and faster this is the camp for you.

Registration fee is $50. This cost covers the fees we need to pay for gym hire.

We will match the contents of the training to match the levels of the participants. We have a number of youth and cadet fencers going to fence in Australia at the Oceania Champs in July and are hoping this camp will provide a good chance for them to prepare. It will be a good chance for younger fencers to train with them and learn from them.
