How to try out / start fencing?

  • The club holds various taster sessions at shcools or  in school holidays etc. These are usually free and organised through Active Schools and the Recreational Trust.

You will be asked to complete an intro or fulll membership form when you start for practical purposes so we contact you and learn of anything which will help us e.g. medical issues.

 We have always had a policy of Inclusivity and whilst our membership fees are low relative to  most clubs, we  encourage anyone who would find the fees a barrier to trying our of joining the fencing club to contact Phil Hibbert so that we can help. This is kept confidential between Phil and the Club Welfare Officer.
