At Croydon Playing Fields Association’s 40th agm held on Wednesday 8th April some of the Salle’s members put on a display of swordfencing for the Chairman, Edward Handley, the members and the principal guest of honour, His Worship the Mayor, Cllr Robert Askey. In attendance also was the MP for Croydon Central, Andrew Pelling.
Employing both Foil and Sabre, Sammy, Christian and James gave a superb demonstration of close order fighting in the upper hallway off the Mayor’s Parlour and received the plaudits of the CPFA attendees.
The fencing display was re-arranged for a latter time than planned and it was most unfortunate that Sarah and Mervyn had to leave at 9pm for another engagement though she participated in the preparations beforehand.
The photographs below were taken by Kevin Ireland.
Well done everyone.
