Congratulations to our new coaches Frank Scott and Lee Banting who qualified at the beginning of July, this means that the club now had four fully qualified fencing coaches with two more in training. Lee and Frank qualified by taking part in CCFC’s Coach Bursary Scheme by which we offer to pay for coach education in return for a years service to the Club.

We are pleased to announce that, with the aid of Norman Randall of England Fencing, on the 3rd November ‘08 we will be running the first ever Mini-Fence® training day. This session will be aimed at giving all the teachers on our Schools Development Scheme the skills needed to get going with Mini-Fence® at their school along with, of course, the full support of Chichester Community Fencing Club. See our ‘Schools Development Scheme’ pages for more about the scheme and the short courses we will be putting on.
Please note that while Thursday sessions will be running as normal, there will be no Friday sessions in August. The first Friday session after the summer break will be on the 12th September.
Chichester Community Fencing Club will be happy to welcome fencers from other clubs during the summer months, we know that most other clubs in the area do not run any sessions during August so if you can’t wait to get fencing again or just want to keep active during the holidays why not come along to one of our sessions?
