What To Wear and other advice

The club has a number of sets of essential clothing for fencing, as well as weapons.

The main protective clothing consists of Plastron, Jacket, Glove and Mask.

Most people wear some kind of tracksuit bottom, tee-shirt and trainers with good grip.

(Please ensure that trousers/tracksuit bottoms are not too long, as they can cause you to slip).

Please wear shoes which are for indoor use only, as dust and dirt from outside can make the floor very slippery and dangerous.

It is a good idea to bring a bottle of water or squash to drink as fencing can be warm exercise
