A fencing competition is a confusing beast to the uninitiated, filled with black magic and complexity. Well here is a great article written on the structure and scoring of a fencing competition.

Hi folks, just a reminder there is no training this Saturday, the Mid Mountains festival is on and the hall is not available. However we will be giving a demonstration for the festival instead of normal training. We will be in the town square (near the table tennis table) between 10 and 12. If you feel like showing off your fencing skills before a live audience, then we will see you at the usual training times!
