Interested in doing something completely different? Fencing is a sport which is dynamic and action packed. Great for socialising
or pushing yourself to your limit, fencing attracts every sort of person.
We can take you as far as you want to go. Whether you want to make some new friends during and outside of training, or have been fencing for years and are looking to hit a new level, we’re here to give you what you want.
Competitions
We compete in the BUCS and County Leagues, many of the National Opens, and the club organises annual trips to international student tournaments in London and Paris. It’s great at improving fitness and satisfies competitive needs in the most thrilling way possible!
Coaching
The Club offers experienced coaching for newcomers in all three disciplines (Foil, Epée and Sabre). Sessions for beginners start in group sessions and then move on to include individual sessions to develop individual technique and ability and give a greater level of personal support. Experienced fencers also take part in group exercises and have access to worldclass, one-to-one coaching from our coaches.
So come down and give us a go. See you soon!
