We’re excited to announce the date for the first Youth Circuit event for the 2014-2015 season: Saturday, November 8, at the Los Olivos Elementary School.
Also, there are a few changes to the Youth Circuit this season. First, the points and competition factors have been adjusted. Second, there will only be three events this year, so points from all three will count. Third, you must compete in at least two events in order to be included in the final results.
Last, to further support fencing for our youth and high school age fencers, this year the clubs will be hosting two fencing clinics. The first will be in October at the San Luis Highlanders. These clinics will be an opportunity to study tactics and techniques together as a community, working with coaches and fencers from other clubs. We hope everyone will attend.
First we want to thank our out-going Board member Merry McCown. Merry has served on the Board for six years both as a member and an officer. Merry’s service to the CCFF and our community has been outstanding. Thanks Merry!
We also want to welcome our newest Board members, Anna Koprack and Russell McCollough. Thank you for joining our efforts to serve our local fencing community!
Welcome to the new Central Coast Fencing site! We hope this new format will continue to help us reach our community with the latest news about fencing on the central coast. Let us know what you think!
