2023!

Happy New Year!


Summer Camp

This year we’re kicking-off fencing with the 2023 VDFC Summer Camp on January 21st (Tarremah Steiner School hall) and 22nd (Claremont Memorial Hall).

The camp will be a good way to brush the cobwebs off and give a boost to your fencing skills going into the new Tassie fencing year.

Third Club Location - Hobart!

Late in 2022 we organised to take-on Monday sessions due to the sad closure of the Tasmanian University Fencing Club. We’ll be welcoming their fencers, and their fencers will be welcoming us to their space, from January 20th.

Our Club Values

Members recently voted for the values they believe represent our club, and which they feel are important to uphold. Meet our official club values:

COMPASSION
INCLUSION
HONESTY
RESPECT
HUMOUR
and two bonus values
PERSEVERANCE
RESILIENCE

We love that so many members were of the same mind when it came to selecting the key values.

We really loved the additional suggestions too and we wish we could adopt all of them, but the list would have ended up seventeen values long!
