09.01.2022 First National open competition for 2021. VFA fencers Jacob Ohrt (first open podium) and Domenic Yates finish =3rd. Well done.

09.01.2022 Think we had the same level of enthusiasm, while it lasted.

08.01.2022 Thanks Colin Keane, great use of data. Work in progress. Fitness training #1 400mtr run around oval under 110 seconds.... After doing this you should still feel good. This is equal to a full DE bout both in travel time and pace. Your average pace should be close to 4 min per km. This pace is a Best benchmark set by Oz top fencers. Therefore, if you can do 3 laps with a 30sec break in between and still feel good then your fitness is ok for 3 full DEs. Feeling good is measured by heart rate, but basically you need to pull up fresh each time. Pieter Leeuwenburgh
