Hello all!
Long time no update.
 
We now have squad training monthly, see previous blog update for a list of 2012 dates.
The March one went really well, we're definitely close to having a smooth format for training.
 
Junior club (7-10s) is now up and running
Tuesdays 5-6pm. 
New members are required to have 4 x individual lessons before they join junior club.  
Contact Avril Roddam for information and to book a lesson.

AFF #1 - Open Nationals - Melbourne
This weekend VDFC members Jack Aylward and Avril Holderness-Roddam will be competing in the first National tournament for 2012. 
Jack will be entering the Open Men's Epee and Avril will be in the Open Women's Epee.
Good luck Jjack! (Avril writing this so it would be weird if I wish myself good luck...) ;)
 
Farewell to Magaly Le Du
Our lovely French Sabre coach has returned to France. We will all miss her but if we're lucky she will visit again in the future :) 

Don't forget adult (11+) club is Tuesdays, 6-8pm @ YMCA in Glenorchy.

Cheers,
Avril Roddam
