BUCS REGIONAL FENCING SERIES 2022
Following on from the Success in 2019-20, the BUCS Regional Fencing Series is back and consists of five regional events across the country, designed to provide student fencers of all abilities the chance to refine their skills, have fun and compete against other students of a similar level.
The events will offer three different grades for each weapon, giving all fencers an appropriate level of bout based on their experience of fencing.
