The Fall Term starts on Thursday, September 7 in Manchester, and on Tuesday, September 12 in Rochester. Get ready now by renewing your USA Fencing memberships for the 2023-2024 season! Here is the link: https://www.usafencing.org/membership

I will have a parent’s meeting at 7:00 at both clubs, on Monday, September 11 in Manchester, and on Tuesday 9/12 in Rochester, to go over procedures in the club and answer any questions. The fencer’s meeting is at 7:00 on Wednesday 9/13 in Manchester, and Thursday 9/14 in Rochester.

The current August term will end on Tuesday, August 29 in Rochester, and on Wednesday, August 30 in Manchester.

Please bring your dues payment to the first meeting. Cash is accepted, and checks should be payable to Seacoast Fencing Club. Sorry, but we do not accept credit cards or e-payments.

Foil and epee is fenced every practice.  However, in Manchester, epee fencers’ biggest night is Thursdays, and foil fencers’ biggest night is Wednesdays.  Monday is usually an even mix of foil and epee.

Foil and epee is fenced every practice.  The best turnout for epee is Tuesday, and foil is strong on both Tuesdays and Thursdays.  

Sunday practices in Rochester will have intensive training and coaching for those who want to prepare for regional and national competitions. We meet every Sunday except on weekends that we host a tournament. Please check the National Training Schedule to see if it is being held- we need six signed up to hold the session.

All Seacoast fencers can come to both the Manchester and Rochester locations if they want to pick up an extra day of fencing (with a new mix of fencers). There is no extra charge. 

As always, we are happy to stay an extra half hour if fencers want more time on the strip!
