COACH EDUCATION: FIRST 2025 COURSE OPEN FOR BOOKING

The first introductory fencing course of the year is being organised in Canterbury in January. Book now.

The Level 1 coaching course will be held at The King’s School Canterbury in the traditional 2-day face-to-face format on the 25th and 26th January. The course will be conducted by Coach Developer Marc Chapman. Candidates will get started in a fencer-centred approach to coaching and be challenged to start developing their coaching philosophy. After completion of the training, coaches will be ready to run group sessions, and correct basic fencing techniques.
