Can all club members who are currently borrowing club equipment please return it urgently if you are not using it for any of the upcoming competitions. We are missing a number of bodywires, maskwires, plastrons, and foils, which other club members need to use.

Just to clarify for everyone; the Secondary School Teams foil event is being held tomorrow (Sunday 18th June) at the St. Bernard’s College Main Gym. This can be accessed from Waterloo Road or Anderson Grove.

Weapons control begins at the venue at 8.30am, registration at 8.45am, and fencing will commence at 9.00am. Good luck to all fencers who are competing.

Please note that there is no 10am fencing session this Saturday (17th June). This is due to HVFC playing host to the Secondary School Teams competition at the clubrooms. Fencing will be on again as usual next week.

Even though the session is cancelled, it would be great if you wanted to come along to support your club-mates at the competition. Saturday is Epee and Sabre team events, which may be quite different to what you normally fence and interesting to watch.

If you want to enter to compete, entries are due tomorrow, so get in quick. Click here to enter.

Reminder to all intermediate and secondary school fencers to enter the Central Secondary School Team Champs.

On the form it mentions a hire fee for club gear hired for the competition. This is only for fencers from other clubs, not for HVFC members. As always, you can borrow the competition gear you need, but don’t leave it till the last minute!
