What they don't say
- Whether the course runs every term or once a year is not stated; autumn 2026 and January 2027 are the two on record.
Every fact here was checked on 11 October 2026, against 3 sources. Training nights and fees change, so if something is out of date, tell us.
Hear when something new is added.
New clubs, changed training nights, and the occasional weekend. No more than that.
Or come and meet people all at once.
A weekend away with a group of gay men, and nothing to prove.
