25.01.2022 Expectation vs. reality Whilst our photo may not have met expectations, Squad Training this semester has far exceeded expectations! Our last session for the year was filled with challenges to beat our personal best. We witnessed gazelle jumps, speedy sprinters, stretches beyond reason, and even a 4 minute plank! Thank you to all our trainers for all their guidance #lastsesh #expectation #reality #buttkisser... #bleedteal #utssport #utsfencing #fencing #escrime #fechten #esgrima #scherma #fitness #sport #maximumeffort #foil #epee

16.01.2022 Fellow Fencers, Yesterday evening, UTS Fencing Club received advice from our Sport Office that non-essential services at the University, including student events and club activities are to be postponed for the remainder of 2020 Autumn session. This step is taken to minimize any impacts that COVID-19 may have on the university and the wider community. The postponement of all ActivateUTS affiliated club activities commenced today Tuesday 17th March 2020. Given the paramoun...t importance of ensuring the safety and well-being of our members as well as the general community, UTS Fencing Club is fully supportive of this decision. The club has already cancelled its Autumn Learn-to-fence program and is suspending club training and squad sessions immediately. UTS Sport will be regularly reviewing the situation, and the club will keep you informed of any changes. We are looking forward to seeing and bouting with you again when the club resumes training. In the meanwhile, please stay safe and take care of one another. Best wishes, Melissa . . . . . . #bleedteal #utssport #utsfencing #fencing #escrime #fechten #esgrima #scherma #fitness #sport #maximumeffort #foil #epee #sabre #fit #utseap #elite #gym #swords #sweat #pumpingiron #coronavirus #covid19 #staysafe
