There are no more local or regional youth competitions until the Summer Nationals. To fill in the gap and better prepare Southern California youth sabre fencers for the Nationals, we have been organizing a series of one day mini-camp and tournaments in partnership with San Diego Fencing Center. This is the third and last clinic before the Nationals. During the first two clinics we did a lot of footwork and hand drills, covered tactical elements of advanced fencing, as well as did plenty of bouting. We'll do it again at Laguna Fencing Center on Sunday, June 28, 2009. The Y10, Y12 and Y14 sabre fencers preparing for the Summer Nationals in Dallas should not miss this series of mini-camp and tournaments. Even if you will not be going to the Nationals, all competitive minded youth fencers are welcome to participate.
This is a sabre only event.
Schedule:
10 AM – 12 PM: mini-camp (footwork, drills, etc.)
12 PM – 1:00 PM lunch break (pizza and drinks will be provided)
1:00 – 4:00 PM sabre youth tournament
Cost (it includes lunch and tournament fee): $65 payable at the door.
Registration for the clinic is available online at AskFred. |
