Kia ora everyone.

Because of the red weather alert across the Wellington region, we have cancelled our foil session tonight.

Additionally, our next Sabre session on the 25th (Anzac) will start at 1pm, rather than our usual 12pm, and will finish at 3pm because the gym is closed for the first half of the day.

Stay safe and stay dry.

Kia ora Koutou,

There will be no Sabre training this Saturday (31st May). Instead you can check out the North Island Championships at Wellington High!

Hi All,

Didn't realize it was end of trimester already! I'm very grateful for everyone's love of fencing and effort this year.

Unfortunately this off season we will be going down to one training per week - Saturday 12-2pm. This means no more Monday trainings however we will do both sabre and foil on Saturday.

Next year we will try to get an earlier time as well which may be a different day like Wednesday or Thursday. (8-10pm has been understandably rough and really showed our regulars dedication!)

Hope to see you at Saturday trainings and/or next year. We will post again when the training times are confirmed.

Vinny

Just a quick heads up if you haven't seen the chat. There is no fencing today due to a badminton tournament. We resume on Monday.

Just a quick reminder Monday Foil is now from 8pm-10pm, fully in the VUW Rec Centre Main Gym
