Who's who

Well, we are the largest and most successful non-student club
in Glasgow. Our members are regulars on the competition circuit around the country. We also
have a healthy number of keen beginners who will soon begin making an impact...or else!
What we do?
We fence all 3 weapons, although the bias does change from time
to time. For a while we were more of an Epee club, but recently Foil and Sabre have made
a comeback.
What we do for fun?
Apart from galloping (or meandering, depending on the fencer) up
and down the piste, we try to encourage our members to develop a healthy social life. Most
of us can be found in The Athol Bar after training on Thursdays, and we also try to have as
many nights out as possible (all in the interests of club unity, of course). We also have
the annual Murder Mystery Weekend.
Who is welcome?
Everyone. We are happy to welcome
anyone to the club from the complete beginner through to the seasoned
veteran. We do run some special "Open Nights" just for beginners,
but the best thing to do is just come along any night.
As you may have guessed from "What we do for fun", we do tend to be an adult centered club, however fencers of all ages are welcome to join our training sessions. Please note that we are unable to provide supervision outside the training session, and children under 13 must be supervised during training by a parent or guardian. Our Child Protection Policy follows the guidelines from the British Fencing Association.

Other Local Fencing
Contacts
Here are a list of some other clubs in the Glasgow area. If you have something else on Thursday nights, like family time, then kill your family. No, only joking, just lock them in the cellar while you go fencing. If they
keep on getting out, or the neighbours phone the police, meaning that you really can't come on Thursdays, here are
contacts for some other clubs in the Glasgow area:
If your club isn't listed please mail us and we'll add it.
Not so Local Fencing Contacts
Some of our members who live further outside the boundaries of Glasgow have recently re-invented Wallace Fencing. They meet on Wednesdays 1930-2130 at Linlithgow Academy.
Several of our ex-members have headed South to seek their fortune - they seem to have
got stuck around Durham/Newcastle, you might find them at Laszlo's Fencing.

The West Section
Like the Twilight Zone - just scarier. Our immediate governing body, the tentacle of Scottish Fencing that loops around the West of Scotland, although this particular appendage is the kind of rogue
limb that a person (or octopus) is likely to lop off with an axe to prevent it strangling its master in his sleep.
