Beginner Courses and Gift Certificates.

Hello everyone!

1) Beginner courses:  8 week beginner Epee fencing courses will start in early July. There are two days to choose from (and if during the course you can't make it to one day for some reason, you can go on the other day so you don't fall behind).

Saturdays from July 9th.
Mondays from July 11th.

Saturdays: Ages 5 to 10: 10am-11am
                   Ages 11 to 15: 11am-12
                   Ages 16 and over: 12 to 1.30pm

Mondays: Ages 5 to 10: 4.30pm to 5.30pm                  
                  Ages 11 to 15: 5.30pm to 6.30pm                
                  Ages 16 and over: 6.30pm to 8pm

2) Feedback I've been receiving is that people believe that fencing is an expensive sport, so I'd like to set you straight :) 
You can now buy a jacket, breeches, mask, and glove for less than $200AUD.
When I began ten years ago I had to pay over four-hundred dollars for my kit, so prices have dropped substantially now :)
Also, Van Diemen Fencing Club supplies fencing equipment, so you don't need to buy your own gear unless you want to.

3) The club launch is this Tuesday, June 28th. Kids ages 5-10 should come along between 5pm and 6pm, and people ages 11 and over should come along between 6pm and 8pm. Please come along and have a go, ask questions and so on.  $2 to have a go and all money raised goes to the Hobart Dogs' Home :)

4) We have gift certificates now for 8 week beginner classes. They make a very cool Birthday/Christmas gift, especially if you have a Star Wars/Pirate fan in the family ;) Available for ages 5 and over.

So, if you would like more information on the courses or you'd like the registration form, please send an e-mail to: van.diemen.fencing.club@gmail.com  OR  you can give us a call: 0428 057 473

We look forward to hearing from you :)
