The Challenge Shields
Each year Northampton Fencing Club runs a competition in foil, junior foil, ladies foil, sabre and epee.
These competitions are aimed at beginners and intermediate fencers but can include those who have fenced for some time.
Anyone who has represented the County, or above, or has won a competition at county level, or above, including the Gary Baker Epee or the Doug Facer foil, cannot enter.
The Challenge Shields are contested during club nights when there is no beginner's class running.
This allows fencing from 7:00 until 10:00 so the competition can be completed during the evening.
The entry fee is £ 2.
Fencers from other clubs are welcome at these competitions.
The Epee Challenge Shield will take place on August 2nd 2007.
