Safety: Our club (like all fencing clubs), makes every effort to ensure that novice and experienced fencers are made aware of and put into practice, the rules of fencing safely. Fencing is a combat sport ("a European martial art" someone once quoted) and you fence at your own risk. But believe it or not
fencing is one of the safer sports around - providing that using common sense and observing the rules and guidelines laid down to fence safely, is adhered to. |
|
Affiliations: The club is affiliated to the British Fencing Association and the Surrey County Fencing Union.
We take an active part in promoting fencing through displays, sport initiatives organised in Croydon and participating in County, Regional and open competitions.
