Hey all

Just joined the forum and thought that I should introduce myself. I've only been fencing since the beginning of this year, but I'm already addicted! I started when I began university here in Australia, and I think it's the best sport I have ever participated in. Not only has it been noticeably effective on my physical fitness, but it also has given me a great output. Any how, I hope to participate on this forum whenever I can!

That's wonderful, after my first lesson I was addicted, and now I can't get enough of it

Glad your here, and good luck fencing

It's okay, thank you Fencergrl I can ignore him, I am better then to get caught up in such things.

Though, I'm curious:

What does my state have anything to do with me welcoming someone?

I'm glad your here Boyd, it is the best Sport I've done as well, and I never did a sport since I'm so short and not very strong. But when I Fence foil though, it doesn't really matter

As a relative newcomer myself Boyd, I can say with confidence you'll have fun here.

Welcome.
