CANCELED: Excelsior Fencing Club: SpringFest tournament
Due to low registrations the board of directors and coaches decided it would be best to cancel the Springfest tournament. Thanks to those who showed interest and registered, but given the numbers, it did not make sense to proceed. Refunds will be issued shortly.
However, we still have the space. So in lieu of the tournament we’ll hold an extra practice from 10am-1pm for those interested. People from other clubs are welcome to come free of charge to this special practice.
Sorry again that we could not make this tournament happen

Clean shoes for the gym
With winter rapidly approaching, and ground outside being wet, slushy, muddy, sandy and salty, this is a reminder to all members to bring a clean pair of shoes to fencing nights.
Why?
- Safety: The waxed gym floor becomes very slippery when wet, which makes it dangerous to fence no.
- Respect the facility: The waxing process for the gym floor is expensive and the grit tracked in easily damages the floor.
Unexpected cancellation notification procedures
We were asked how a last minute cancellation of a fencing night is handled.
Primary notification method: E-mail
We will do our best to have a notification sent by e-mail to all registered members by 6:00PM/18:00.
Secondary methods
We will also post a notification to the following as soon as possible:
- Discord: In the
#announcementschannel. - Website: On the front page and in the News section.
