The ON TARGET Fencing Team of Northern Ohio is a group of Foil, Epee and Sabre fencers from Erie, Lorain, Lake, Medina, Summit and Cuyahoga County. We have classes in Berea-Brookpark, Hudson (3 classes), Kenston-Bainbridge, Mentor, North Ridgeville (3 classes on three days), Orange (2 classes), Solon/Twinsburg (2 classes), Strongsville, St. Joseph’s Academy and St. Edward High School. Registered with, and insured by the United States Fencing Association, it is an official fencing club. Head Coach Tom Nagy, a 32 year fencing veteran, is certified by the United States Fencing Coaches Association as an instructor in foil. Rich Hamper is epee coach.
Practices depend on the weather, if a city's schools (except Mentor) are closed on a particular day, then the fencing classes are cancelled for that day. Classes will be made up whenever possible. Also, it is wise to wear street shoes to class, then change into dry athletic shoes inside the door. This will prevent water puddles on the fencing room floor.
