Hi everyone,
I have been fencing for about 11 months now and I have come to love the sport. Now I have fought in the Belgrade Universiade 2009 where I got my ass handed to me as I am still quiet inexperienced.

Anyways I am going to study in Stockton CA now. I was wondering if there where any good fencing school's/clubs there?

Welcome to fnet.

I can't really help you with clubs in California (I'm in Texas) but I hope you like the site. It mainly consists of nutjobs and crazy fencers, but hey, it's fun.

By the way, what's the story behind the name Drago?

Yeh I figured I have to digg up places by myself,
oh I got my name because I always liked the dragon as a creature.
However most of the time dragon was taken online. So I resorted to taking away the "n" making it drago.
Which in Serbian oddly enough mean "precious" but that was unplanned.

there is fencing in stockton but it depends on what weapon. i believe there is epee and foil but saber is scarce. i fence in sacramento and talked to a saber fencer down there who said they had foil but few saber people.

there is a good local circuit in the SF Bay area for all 3 weapons called the Bay Cup (do a web search for their site) which is about 1 1/2 to 2 hrs from stockton where you can find tournaments run on a regular basis. good luck on your move !
