end of february fencing update

​Hello Fencers and families!

Can’t get enough of fencing?  Try saber classes with Coach Victor on Mondays, Beginner at 5:30-6:30 and Advanced/Competitive from 6:40-8.  Competition Epee with Coach Elliot on Wednesdays, 6:45-8:15, Friday foil classes at 5 (youth beginner), 6 youth intermediate, 7 adult.  Go try a new class and weapon!  For competition classes, prior coach approval needed.
 
THANKS!  In February, Alexavier Miles did a great job as an assistant coach in the Friday classes.  Bridget Garcia, Nate Wagner, Manager Mike Moskalski and Armorer Trevor Wilson came to the February tournaments and served as referees.

Let me know if you have any questions.  It is a pleasure to be your coach!  
Coach Bill
