FAW club Senior Team formation
If any one is interested in competing in a team event at the US Nationals, please contact me at jackclee@optonline.net
I would like to start a Senior Epee team with 4 members. I believe we need to qualify in a preliminary competition at the Sectional level.
If we qualify, you must be able to travel to the Nationals in San Jose in July, 2008.

- Frank, That's great that you want to learn fencing however, our club policy prevents me from giving lessons due to insurance guidelines. However, you can sign up for group lessons that are not too costly. We can do free style fencing at the club where I can give you some pointers.
We have loaner equipment so you don't have to spend a dime for the first month of trial period.
Looking forward to seeing you.

- Fred, I apologize for not responding sooner. I was away at the National tournament in San Jose. Yes, our club is excellent and always welcome new memebers. Just come down to our club any evening and get a free one month trial period. We have equipment for loan. All our coaches are great but depending on which weapon you choose, different coaches will be better. The club is closed this week due to the Nationals.
