Coach Gerhard will be going to Charlotte, NC to support Isaac Canady in his event at 8AM on Saturday, February 15, 2025. Junior Olympics will actually be occuring from February 14-17, 2025.
A national fencing event means that several equipment suppliers will be on site. I plan on purchasing several things we need for club. But if you need to purchase beginner equipment, uniform pieces, start purchasing competitive equipment, or adding or replacing any equipment…actually having a need to purchase ANY fencing equipment, being at a national event is the best place to do so. You can try things on and or try different types of weapons, shoes, etc.
These are the equipment suppliers that will be on site:
