SUMMER CAMPS for Youth One & Beginners ages 7-13
M-F 9:00am-3:00pm
Summer fencing fun is here! NWFC’s beginning Youth Camps are designed for those with little to no fencing experience or to practice your skills. Through fun games and exercises, students will learn all the basics of the Olympic sport of foil fencing: how to hold the foil, fencing footwork, how to attack and defend, as well as all of the rules needed to fence. And of course, we will play group battle games!
It’s the perfect sport for keeping covid distance, we supply all of the protective gear, masks and weapons (but if you have your own, bring it!). Our gym is fully air conditioned with high quality air filters and an outside patio area for fresh air.
SUPPLIES:
- VERY IMPORTANT- Bring a lunch, snacks, and water
- Wear a t-shirt, long pants, tennis type shoes (no sandals, crocs, or flip flops)
Please pick up your fencer promptly at 3pm each day, they will be tired!
