Term Three!

We’re back!

Monday club resumed last night with 21+ fencers!

We welcomed newcomer Skye, who started learning Foil with Coach Daniel and Julia, Matt and Titia focused on their Sabre skills, and the rest of the fencers trained their footwork through the theme of “Exploiting Distance”, followed by a lot of bouting on and off the electrics.

Thank you to everyone who came along and made a great night of it!

So, from Monday, June 2nd, 2025, our North Hobart club sessions will be held 6 pm - 8 pm until further notice.
