GIVE THE GIFT OF FENCING THIS CHRISTMAS!!
Unsure what Christmas gift to buy for the special someone in your life? Give them Fencing, for life!
Why not treat them to our Fencing Beginner Course, starting in the New Year:
- Our next Fencing Beginner Course will start on THURSDAY 8TH JANUARY 2026
- Tickets & further info available >HERE<Â
- Don’t forget that a membership fee discount applies for a referral!
CLUB KIT AMNESTY
If you have borrowed any club kit, PLEASE return it. It belongs to the club.
All of our foil/sabre bodywires have gone missing!! (thanks to the person who returned one on Thursday)
As a result, the club has to buy some replacements. This involves work for the Committee, and expense for the club.
Club kit is primarily there for beginners, although we’re happy for anyone to use any clothing, masks, weapons, or bodywires on the night should you need to. But it’s a borrow, not a take.
Please return any club kit that you may have borrowed and forgotten to return.
No repercussions or questions, just bring it back, please.
YOUR CLUB NEEDS YOU!
The best fencing club in the whole universe (well, Hertfordshire at least) does not happen by accident.
It only happens with the help and input from the various members of the Committee. And the club need your help to with the following position:
- CLUB CAPTAIN
Richard R is hanging up the Captain’s armband at the end of 2025.
The Club extends its thanks to RR for his work on the 3C league and getting the Club Ladder up and running and in the fine shape it now is! <more applause>
Can anyone step into his Kempa shoes and take over the running of the Three Counties League, and the Club Ladder (though that pretty much runs itself)
