Fencing 2024 – Trials start next week

Hi all,

Not long to go before the Fencing season kicks off! Please be aware of the schedule for next week (starting Monday 11/03/2024):

  • Monday 11/03/2024: Year 7 Rotation – Try Fencing (after school 3:30pm to 5pm) – predetermined list from the year 7 Rotation program
  • Wed Senior Sport: All senior fencers to attend
  • Wed after school (3:30pm to 5pm): Development group trials (1 of 2)
  • Thurs Junior Sport: All junior fencers to attend
  • Thurs after school (3:30pm to 5pm): Development group trials (2 of 2)

Fencing gear is not required in this first week of trials as activities will be fitness and agility based. New fencers who make it into the program will have access to a set of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for the season.

If you are a returning fencer (not your first season), please make sure you bring your own fencing gear (PPE: mask, jacket, breeches, underplastron, glove), particularly if you’re trying out for Squads.

Squad trials will be ongoing from the week starting 18/03 onwards. All fencers nominating for Squads are to attend relevant Squad training sessions and must bring their own PPE. Please keep an eye on announcements and Clipboard schedule.

We aim to finalise the list of fencers in the program by the end of next week. Clipboard rolls will be in flux and updated as we conduct our trials.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this busy period.
Please let me know if there are any issues or questions.

Kind regards,
Mr Dat Huynh
MIC Fencing
