Does any one know if and where any Coaching Workshops will be this summer?

USFA Coaches College at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, CO.

Session one: July 21 - July 29 Foil 1, Saber 2, Foil 3, Saber 4
Session two: July 31 - August 8 Epee 1, Foil 2, Epee 3, Foil 4
Session three: August 10 - August 18 Saber 1, Epee 2, Saber 3, Epee 4

Application deadline is May 15th.

I'm planning to be there taking Epee 3 and either Saber 3 or Foil 3 depending on whether or not Saber 3 is actually held this year. This is a very good program with good coaches. It's run by Alex Beginet (Duke Head Coach) with other instructors including Ed Richards, Michael Marx, Gary Copeland, Andrea Lagan, Sara Solomon, Zoila Palacio, Bruce Bizzoco, Dan DeChaine, Sally Robinson, and Carol Buerdsell.

Also you should check the USFCA website. There are regional clinics such as the ones in San Antonio, TX and Redlands, OK (May 2-4 and August 1-3). Check the Bay Area on the west coast, there were Monthly coaches clinics at Halberstadt fencing club (check their website). They are listing a foil clinic and an Epee clinic.
You might also check Canada, there is a NCCP Coaches clinic for L1-3 scheduled for April 25-27 in ON.
I am sure there is more going on, but this is all I know off the top of my head.

The USFA webmaster has advised that there are some problems getting the Coaches College website back online. The problems should be fixed in a bout 1 1/2 weeks.

If someone needs the Coaches College application I could forward it to you sooner. I have it on a word-file.
