En Garde Fencing Referee Clinic

Saturday, February 20th: Referee testing clinic. A very important skill for the complete fencer to learn is how to be a good referee. At En Garde Fencing we support the development of referees and seek to promote knowledge and understanding of the sport. The Referee Testing Clinic is part of a pilot program to train and develop referees in the Northern California Division. This clinic is open to all referee candidates in the division for a $20 fee, and free to all fencers and parents who wish to learn more about the rules of the sport of fencing. Anyone is welcome to come to the clinic for free and stay as long as they like. This is the perfect opportunity for those of you who would love to have a better understanding of what your kids are doing on the strip and what the mysterious things the referee keeps saying and doing really mean. Know when to cheer for your favorite fencer!
