David Walters

Club Treasurer

David started fencing at the age of 12 and during his academic years was a schoolboy international, a member of the Scottish Commonwealth games squad and the Scottish under 21 sabre champion.

Career and family commitments then took priority, but he has now returned, after 30 years, to the sport.

 This is such a great sport that allows anyone to participate, at all ages, to the level they are comfortable, whether that be recreational or competitive.

Joining the " Vet's association now seems to be the next move and David is looking forward to supporting the many other Hunt-Roeder "Vet's " that play an important part in expanding this dynamic sport
