Kendo Squad Training & Schedule
Squad training sessions are usually held once a month. These take place over a weekend. Anyone interested in being involved with the squad is welcome to attend. There is a charge of £3 per session to help cover costs. Dates for squad sessions can be found in the calendar above.
We particularly want to encourage more women to come and join the squad. The only requirements are that you are keen to compete and willing to attend squad training sessions
