1. Everything is as usual this week, including 9 am training for the elite on Saturday. Canada Cup is on the horizon, everyone!
2. Thank you to everyone who brought things for the parent to parent - I don't believe any gear was purchased but if I am mistaken and you are looking for items or cash, please let Darren know.
3. Armoury: A gentle reminder that the armoury is not a free place for equipment and under NO circumstances should an athlete take any piece of equipment or item (wires, tips, barrels, screws, washers, sockets, grips, spaghetti, etc etc) from the armoury without either permission or payment. SFO's access to the armoury includes only these things: glue, tape, varsol and tools. That is all, and even here - abuse is not tolerated nor are you allowed to take tools home. Everything else belongs to the club and must be paid for.
4. OFA/CFF membership: If you plan on participating in an fencing competition outside of SFO then you will need a OFA/CFF annual license (membership). This year the OFA is running a series of events from u9 to u17 and 3/4 of these are in the GTA. In order to fence in these, you will need the license.
