TONIGHT: Club Team Competition!
Format will be teams of 3 in an Italian relay format to 45 points. Bouts will be timed to a maximum of 3 minutes as standard. Fencers will be allocated to teams to give a mix of abilities, eg experienced / intermediate / newcomer
There will be a brief (5 mins) footwork warm-up, and then we’ll get straight into the comp. to give maximum fencing time.
We’re asking everyone that wants to be involved to help us by signing in as early as possible, and by no later than 7pm tonight (for 8pm start) so teams can be allocated.
There is a poll in the Club WhatsApp chat group to indicate your weapon choice for the team comp. If you aren’t on the group, please contact us as soon as possible.
We’re hoping that as many as possible will want to participate, but it’s not compulsory. There will be at least one piste available for non team comp fencing, but please note there will be no coach available, and the club ladder is suspended for the evening. The beginners course will continue as normal.
See you on the piste later… En Garde! SAFC
