Spring Term starts March 1! All the usual days and hours are unchanged, except Rochester’s Youth Training, all of whom have moved up to Junior/Adult Training for the remainder of this season. The Spring term dues are below. Please bring a check payable to Seacoast Fencing Club, or cash (no credit cards or e-payments).
Spring Dues for both clubs (March, April, May)
Children $400
Youth $420
Junior $440

Manchester Schedule
Children 6:00 to 7:00 on Mondays and Wednesdays
Youths 6:30 to 7:45 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays
Juniors and Adults 7:00 to 9:00 pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays
Foil and epee is fenced every practice. However, in Manchester, epee fencers’ biggest night is traditionally on Thursdays, and foil fencers’ biggest night is Wednesdays. Monday is usually an even mix of foil and epee.
Rochester Schedule
Children 6:00 to 7:00 on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Youths All have been moved up into Junior/Adults
Juniors and Adults 7:00 to 9:00 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays
2:00 to 4:30 pm on Sundays (National Training)
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. I will send an email with a sign-up spreadsheet to the fencers with the desire to travel outside of New Hampshire and Maine. Fencers, please check the National Training Schedule to see if it is being held- we need six signed up to hold a training 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!
