As my eight year old pulled off of his fencing mask after a bout, he said with a huge grin on his face, “That’s some of the most fun I’ve ever had!  Let’s do it again!” (fencing enthusiast)


Using a system designed in conjunction with the British Fencing Association and other experts we bring SAFE fencing to 6 – 19 year olds.

What boy, or indeed girl, has not grown up pretending to be a pirate, or one of the Three Musketeers, or Zorro himself?   Why do they do it?  Because it’s fun.

Some people are attracted to fencing because of its rich historical heritage, some like it because it keeps them physically fit, many enjoy its emphasis on chivalry, but many people fence just for the joy of it – because it’s just plain fun.

  • We provide foam foils that are safe and yet hard enough to give the real feel of fencing.
  • There is the chance to progress to plastic foils as the childs skill level increases
  • We ensure visors are worn at all times giving peace of mind as well as that authentic fencing experience.
  

Fencing is a sport of skill, strategy and finesse.  Someone once likened it to, “playing chess, except it’s physical chess and moves along very, very quickly!”

As anyone with children knows they love to play fight and what could be safer and more fun than being allowed to do that whilst keeping the grown ups happy.

There are many benefits to participating in youth fencing.

  • Children learn good sportsmanship and self-discipline.
  • They learn to compete independently as well as for a team.
  • They learn to enjoy winning and profit from defeats.
  • They become physically fit and healthy.
  • They learn to make complex decisions.
  • They analyze problems, and think fast.

These ideals help children reach their potential in many areas other than fencing.
