Club Rules

• Show respect to everyone in the Academy

• NO HORSEPLAY. PERIOD!

• Maintain control of your weapon at all times.

• Use only those techniques which you have successfully practiced in lessons.

• Do Not use techniques that are not suited for the current fencing conditions (e.g. fleching in a crowded club, unnecessary force.)

• Wear correct safety gear appropriate for the level of competition (e.g. advanced fencers wear full gear; beginning fencers only need to wear a mask, jacket, and a glove.)

• Sword points stay down when inactive and/or off the floor.

• Stay alert for unmasked people on the floor (stop if needed.)

• Follow additional safety rules as instructed by coaches.

Remember: You are always, and only, responsible for your own actions!
