HOW TO JOIN

Here's everything you need to know about becoming part of the team.

When should you join?

The start of the school year is best, but new members are welcome anytime.

Not sure what to expect?

Come to a few practices Wednesdays after school at 3:30 in the Cafeteria to
see if fencing is your thing before committing.

In order to participate in fencing at Lassiter each season, students must complete:

1. Academic Eligibility: Just like sanctioned sports, you must meet Lassiter's academic standards to participate.

2. Paperwork and Physical:

Complete the Lassiter Fencing Club paperwork, including a physical examination form.
Get your physical done by a family physician, pharmacy clinic, or urgent care facility.
Direct any questions about paperwork to alora.moser@cobbk12.org.

Where: Lassiter Cafeteria

When: Wednesdays, 3:30 to 5:30 PM, starting mid August until February break.

Cleanup takes a few minutes, so plan on being picked up shortly after 5:30.

Georgia High School Fencing League (GHSFL) tournaments are hosted by neighboring high school once or twice a month (September through February). Participation is encouraged but not required.
Tournaments are on Saturdays from early morning to late afternoon.
Want to aim higher? Compete in USA Fencing tournaments in the Atlanta area -- and national as you advance!

Consider outside lessons or joining a private club for extra practice and guidance.
