What they don't say
- The pages read do not say whether the socials continue into 2027; four dates to 3 December are listed.
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 Training nights and fees change, so if something is out of date, tell us.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.
