Fancy getting fit this year? Want to try something new? Whether you're a budding athlete or a wannabe Jedi, sign up to a fencing beginners class with Edinburgh Fencing Club. We have dedicated classes for children and adults, and we provide all the kit you'll need.

When you come to your class, please wear full-length tracksuit trousers and non-marking trainers, and we suggest you bring a water bottle – fencing is thirsty work.

EFC were out in force at the new-look Scottish Open, with 17 fencers representing the club. And here are the results:

Elite Epée, 1 & 2 October

CJ continues to be a force to be reckoned with on the senior men's epée circuit, coming 5th at the Elite Epée. Daisy had a brilliant day at this high-level senior event, getting through the first round without being cut and missing out on a DE by only two hits - finishing 65 out of 106 overall.

Congratulations to the 5 Edinburgh Fencing Club women foilists who, between them, dominated the The Essex Open: the first major open of the season. Chloe Dickson for retained her title from last year in a close and exciting final with Katie Smith.
