Safety

Safety
Attendance
The coaches are volunteers with other commitments and so may sometimes be late. The club cannot be responsible for members’ safety until the coaches are present, parents of younger members should wait with the children until they arrive.
Kit
All the kit used at the club meets the current safety standards as set out by the FIE (The International Fencing Federation). Beginners can use the fencing kit at the club. Having joined the club and paid the fees, fencers may be asked to take kit home. Please keep it clean, keep it safe and remember to bring it every week. It helps the coaches, especially with the younger children, if fencers arrive in their kit ready to start the session.
First Aid
There is always a qualified First Aider present.
