GLECA Sydney

What an incredible showing from the GLECA Sydney and Canberra fighters at *Capital Krieg 2026* hosted by The Canberra School of Arms and Armour.

Saturday’s Longsword tournament saw our competitors represent the clan with skill, professionalism, and determination throughout the day:

⚔️ Chris – 2nd Place
⚔️ Ken – 5th Place
⚔️ Harrison – 10th Place
⚔️ Andrew – 11th Place

On Sunday, Chris also competed in the Sword & Buckler tournament, once again securing 2nd place amongst a field of high-quality competitors, making for another hard-fought and energetic day of fencing.

Every competitor fenced amazingly well and embodied what it means to be part of the clan. Proud to be a Glecan and proud of the strong representation our members continue to bring to the wider HEMA community.

We will be focused on longsword tomorrow night at GLECA Sydney.
Training is on at 7:30pm.

GLECA training sessions work through structured drills, technical fundamentals, and controlled partner exercises designed to build timing, distance, and clean mechanics. Whether you’re brand new or refining existing skills, the session will cater to all experience levels.

Location: 112 Edwin St, Croydon NSW 2132

All experience levels are welcome. Bring a water bottle and a willingness to learn, we’ll take care of the rest.
