Welcome To Veterans Fencing

Saresto Snomobiles

Saresto Open, Lapland 2003

This competition claims to be the most northerly fencing event in the world and is held in a small ski resort 250Km north of the Arctic Circle. Snomobiles are great fun.

Why do people join the NVA? Everyone remarks on the spirit and the atmosphere at the competitions. This comes from our having a common love of fencing and interest in the skill of the sport. Vets have usually given up the regular competitive circuit but the fencing brain is still there as sharp as ever
