thats very strange but the only good pages about fencing on the web r "made in" USA !!??, i thought u guys were only a very few to practice fencing ...
Hello, Soos! I and my club are located just outside of Detroit, in the USA. So your profile says you like Hockey. Have you ever heard of the Detroit Red Wings?
yep sure, but my favourite defensor was konstantinov ... and now, the poor guy, he cant defend anything anymore...
i heard sthg fun : detroit was founded by a french, thats why some cars r called "cadillac" cose cadillac is a village somewhere in france ... strange nah ?!
anyway, for my part, i usually go on IRC (undernet) on #rugby (www.rugby.com02.com)
and could be fun to join for instance #fencing or #escrime on IRC (undernet) ...
I like rugby/hockey but my main sport is definitly fencing .. errrrr ... actually FOIL , cos else isnt fencing ! ahhaah
Hi...am in Honolulu, Hawaii. As for live chats...hmmm, I have no idea. I think this is site is the closest I have found. It's not live, but hey it works. I use ICQ and AIM.
Konstantinov was (is) a great man. Oh yeah, I'm a member of the same club that HilandDoug is. I'll always remember the "Russian Five." Ok, so I'm a HUGE hockey fan myself...
And on AIM: Moonitic

I heard that someone was working on a #fencing channel on undernet, you'd need pirch or mirc software to go there though. I think excite chat might work out better, as you don't need software and can just click on a link to go to it.
I hate to point this out. But FS has chat, or did when it first came on line. Don't know if it's still there or not. If I remember right, no one was ever in it.

Uebermind, where do you fence? From your location I would guess either Bayou City or Salle Mauro...my bet is Bayou City. I'm a little west of you at Clear Lake Fencer's Club.

As of the 1st I am now the Vice Chair of the division. I suppose I need to get that USFA renewal form sent out. The last Vice Chair we had did nothing. Would be interested to hear what other Vice Chairs have to do.
I haven't run across a fencing chat room. I am willing to chat about fencing with anyone on AIM or ICQ (see profile for ids)

I've also seen the occasional fencing room at various IRC servers.
How about if everyone here decides "where" an IRC fencing channel should be. dalnet, undernet, or knightnet (kinda like that one). Rooms are pretty easy to set up, just need participants.

yep guys, i usually go on #rugby on undernet myself, so that i was telling u about "fencing on undernet, nothing to register for the moment, just going there and talk ....
as i m in france i m +1 hour (GMT), so if u wanna go there just tell ppl what time (gmt) u might be there ...
I know it isn't a very good place to chat sometimes. Although I can Easily set up a room under sports in Yahoo chat!! Any takers?
