Weekly Update and results from Brock

22/11/2018

 
All trainings are as usual this week, despite Coach Darren being at Vango on Sat/Sunday.  Coach Gareth will take the competitive and elite training on Sunday 10-1 pm.  In other words, come because it is a good chance to bout with him as well as train as per usual.
​
Remember the Boston Pizza Party is Monday, tickets in advance or at door - let Shawn Davies know asap.  Starts at 5 and the food keeps coming.

No Fencing weekend of Nov 17-18

A reminder that there are no fencing classes the weekend of Nov 17-18 as most fencers and all coaches will be at the Brock Open tournament in St. Catherines.

Minifence makeup classes for this weekend and the Sunday missed for Thanksgiving are schedules for Dec 2 and 9.

Save the Date: Nov 26 Pizza Fundraising Party

10/11/2018

 
Our Boston Pizza Booster Party is Monday, Nov 26. See parent rep Shawn Davies for tickets; he'll be at the club starting Nov 11. Tickets cost $20/adult, $10/child under 12 - all you can eat pasta, pizza, those spicy chip things. There will be door prizes and raffles!  It's always a lot of fun, and a great opportunity to meet everyone and generate some extra funds for the club.  

Respect in Sport training: Mandatory

10/11/2018

 
Just a reminder as we ramp up the tournament season, that SFO requires all parents to participate in the Respect in Sport Parental training.  Please finish up, or start if you have not.  This training ensures that we all, from coach, athlete and parent/family member, know the expectations of the club regarding fair play and communication.
