Armoring Clinic directed at Minnesota high school fencers, but open to everyone.

The clinic will be run by famed Minnesota armorer, fencer, and referee Colin McChesney. It will cover:

  • diagnosing problems with weapons and body cords
  • isolating equipment problems on the strip
  • basic repairs for weapons, body cords, and mask cords
  • rewiring blades

The pre-registered and pre-paid fee is $15, and day-of-event payment is $20. Please plan on arriving at 1:00 to register and check in if you have not prepaid.

The clinic itself is scheduled for 1:30–4:30.

The fee is for each fencer, but one parent/guardian may accompany a paid fencer at no extra charge. If a parent/guardian chooses to attend without a fencer, they must pay the fee but can pay under their child's name to avoid having to create an AskFRED account.

The clinic is free for MHSFCA coaches who have completed their code of conduct.
