In foil I was D99 and E in epee an after only fenceing for 1 year. I won a tourny in Miami that would have givin me my C but there was one C rated entry short for it to qualify, That was happy and disappointing day......I havent been a member since 02 and stoped doing tournys because of a foot injury. Still bout with old freinds evey now and then. Really wish I didn't get hurt or I would still be doing tournys here....
It can get a little pricy do get real involved in the sport though....

Just have fun....
When I started, we did conditioning training for two months befor we ever touched a weapon.....so get in shape, even if you think you are in shape, your probly not. not for fencing..haha
Always were all protective gear......that steel hurts sometimes.
Be safe and enjoy.

I only got in one practice little tornament for kids. I was new so they stuck me with little kids instead of kids my age (that kicked my butt!) so I was twice as tall as them (I'm 6ft now and I'm 14. I think I was around 12 when this happened) so all I had to do was stick out my foil and I won. I won the tournament and the got a pic of the winners in the little league stand up so I was a lot taller so there was a tall guy on the right and they kept on getting smaller as you looked left.
Good times!
Easy Medal that means nothing!
