SCA Fencing Week & BBQ Sept 27- Oct 3

Dear SCA Members,

In celebration of the start of the new fencing season, and an effort to say thank you for supporting us over the last 1,5 years, we are hosting a SCA Fencing Week from Monday September 27^th to Sunday October 3^rd.

SCA Fencing Week is a week-long series of events organized specifically for all SchermCentrum Amsterdam members. The events encourage SCA Fencers of all members to improve their game, try new things, and meet other members!

Haven’t been at the club for a while? No problem! SCA Fencing Week is the perfect chance to get back in the game!

 

SCA Fencing Week Includes:

·   Focused Workshops on all aspects of the game from footwork, to technique, to learning how to judge a match

·   Dedicated Weapon Days designed to allow all fencers to try out other weapons that they may normally not play

·   A Weekend BBQ to give fencers the chance to meet each other again and make new friends
