MU Fencing in 2022

Club activities have resumed

We are currently back to fencing at Melbourne University, with reduced capacity in adherence to COVID restrictions. Currently club members who wish to fence need to have their own gear. A solution to start lending out club gear is currently in progress... The beginner's Course for 2022 will start the week after O-week!

We're almost there. We are currently going through our final preparations to ensure we have a COVID Safe return. Please stay tuned for more updates soon...

Indoor sports are still a no go for MU sports

Unfortunately we won't be returning for semester 2 (2020)...

Dear fencers,

Due to lockdown conditions it looks like we won't be resuming MU Fencing club activities in semester two. Presently, we do not have a given date from MU Sport when we might be able to return. We hope all our club members stay safe and connected in the meanwhile. We look forward to seeing everyone back at fencing in the future!
