We have a great mix of boys and girls. Both learn in a happy and safe environment. We are one of the only clubs with a high ratio of female coaches which encourages participation of boys and girls.

Day-Camps

Children can join our famous day camps. These are available three times a year on Saturday. It gives a great boost for children.

Summer Term one day mini-camp was a great boost for the children. Children were divided into two camp formats; Electric & Steam.

This is always a great part of the programme with the morning workshop focus more on team games and the afternoon workshop aiming at improving the match quality in fencing specific drills and match tactics.

Coaches Miss Rachel & Miss Raelle were very pleased with the progress of the children and how quickly the new children integrated with the more experienced.
