Club Bulletin # 260218: Apologies For Last Week One Night In Westbury-On-Trym McNeill Cup February Epee Champion Hats Off To Anna & Gianna

Hello Fencers!

  • Abject apologies to all for the semi-shambles of last week's cancellation of the Wednesday, 21st February session. A burst water main meant that there was no running water in the school and the owners of the site were prevented by regulations form opening the school in that condition.
  • We won't have access to our venue again this week, due to a parents' evening at the school.  We have secured an alernative venue for the evening at Newman Hall, Westbury-On-Trym.  Click  here for directions. It will for the usual 7:30pm to 10pm.  We'll be back to normal from then on.
  • February's McNeill Cup team sabre championship for February will be contested on Wednesday. 
  • Our Club Epee Championship was resolved on Saturday and the winner was Jon Mason, with Patrick Durant in second and Paul Dougall in third.
  • Hats off to coaches, Gianna Colligiani and Anna Grodent.  They ran our first, and their first, beginners' sabre workshop ;last Saturday and took their nine students through the fundamentals of that weapon.  A successful and joyous event!

See you soon,
                       John
