Answers to some of the questions you may ask and may have missed in the rest of the site
- What is too young or too old?
At Stourbridge, for organisational reasons, we are not able to cope with under 10's. There are some clubs around the country that take children as young as 6 or 7.
For the over 80's we might want to check out your zimmer frame for booby traps.
It is a sport you can take up later in life and do well enough at it to get a great deal of enjoyment from it. And, there is a thriving Veterans Fencing scene for the over 40's - with those who take it very seriously going for European and World championships - whilst there are fun events, including some very entertaining trips abroad, to an esoteric selection of countries, for the less zealous. One member recently went to Japan on such a trip.
