Thanks to support from our State MP Trish Doyle with an Office of Sport Local Grant in 2021, and in 2023, we’ve been able to run our comps, training sessions, and special community events, using the state of the art scoring equipment which the grant provided – streamlining scoring, timing and refereeing, and giving fencers experience with the systems they'll encounter in higher level comps. 

Thanks to support from Katoomba and Upper Blue Mountains Community Bendigo Bank Branch this year, we’ve been able to buy a laptop to run the competition software Fencing Time, giving fencers a high-quality competition experience and also allowing members to learn the software and expand their skills, and also three new pistes to increase comfort and safety when bouting.
