Tizona Fencing Club TIZONA Fencing Club – Box Hill, Melbourne
A leading fencing academy offering professional Foil and Épée programs. Train. Compete. Excel. Join TIZONA. Why Fencing?

Modern facilities, elite coaching, and proven results — from beginners to national champions. Founded in 2016, Tizona Fencing Club aims to create an inclusive environment and a united community to train members of all ages from novice to national levels. All our coaches are Australian Fencing Federation (AFF) certified. In addition to be former elite fencing athletes of the Australian Fencing Cham

pions, they all possess abundant experience in coaching for many years. All equipment used in our Club are up-to-date and compliant with FV standard. Most importantly, unlike traditional trainings which often focus on sword- fighting techniques, we strive to deploy a cohesive and proactive integrated system approach to prioritize the physical, mental, and body awareness skills of our students. This not only will be of great benefit to their future development but also encourage their pursuit of personal excellence and lifelong discovery. Our Mission
Building on a legacy of world class athletes, Tizona Fencing Club is committed to promoting the positive values of fencing and providing a quality, enjoyable and all round fencing program, where students of all ages achieve their maximum potential and gain a love of fencing. We aim to provide our students with a positive learning attitude so that they can enhance their mental and physical capacity by reaching their individual goals
Why Fencing? There are many benefits to kids’ fencing. Children learn good sportsmanship and self-discipline. Through our comprehensive Mini-Fencing program, children can improve their stamina, concentration and motor coordination. They learn to make complex decisions, analyze problems, think and act fast. These qualities will eventually help children reach their potential in many areas other than fencing.

A great weekend for Team Tizona at the 2026 Australian Intermediate Schools Championships!

Our fencers were out representing their schools over the weekend, with some fantastic results across the Men’s and Women’s Foil events.

Men’s Foil

🥇 Robert Zhou — Champion
🥉 Lucas Xing — Bronze
Eric Chen — 6th
Eric Zhang — 8th

Robert bounced back from a tough pool round and fenced brilliantly through the DEs to take the title, while Lucas put together another strong competition to finish on the podium.

A big shout-out to Eric Chen and Eric Zhang, the two youngest fencers in the field. It was their first time competing at this event, and both made the Top 8 against much older and bigger opponents. Great effort from the boys!

A special mention to Eric Chen, who came straight back to the club to train after the competition. Great attitude from one of our youngest competitors.

Women’s Foil

🥇 Irina Zhang — Champion
🥈 Heather Liang — Silver
🥉 Ada Wang — Bronze
🥉 Gabby — Bronze

A fantastic result for the girls, with all four finishing on the podium!

Irina took the title after meeting Heather in the final, with Ada and Gabby both taking bronze.

It was also great to see Gabby on the podium. She regularly makes the trip over from South Australia to train with us, and it’s fantastic to see that hard work paying off.

At Tizona, we encourage our fencers to get out there, represent their schools and gain as much competition experience as possible. It’s great for their development and also helps grow fencing across Australian schools and the wider community.

We’re especially pleased to see our younger fencers starting to step up. Every experienced competitor was once the new kid at their first competition.

The older fencers set the standard, the younger ones keep pushing — and everyone gets better together.

Well done to everyone who competed and represented their schools. Plenty more to come!

Medals are the result. It’s the commitment and growth along the way that matter most.

A big day for Tizona at the 2026 Victorian U15/U17/U20 State Championships!

🏆 5 foil events, 5 gold medals.

Tizona took Gold in every foil event on the day:

🥇 U15 Women’s Foil — Sarah Wei
🥇 U15 Men’s Foil — Matteo Canlas
🥇 U17 Mixed Foil — Heather Liang
🥇 U20 Women’s Foil — Irina Zhang
🥇 U20 Men’s Foil — Robert Zhou

And a few more podium finishes for the team:

🥉 Ivy Chen & Shuyu Zhang — U15 Women’s Foil
🥉 Lena Wei — U17 Mixed Foil
🥈 Lucas Xing & 🥉 Ocean Xing — U20 Men’s Foil

Over in sabre, Nicol Canlas had a great day, taking Gold in U15 Mixed Sabre. 🥇

Nina Canlas also represented Tizona in U20 Mixed Épée and picked up some valuable competition experience.

Some fantastic results across the day, but it’s not just about the medals.

Competition is a chance for our fencers to put their training into practice, test themselves against different opponents and learn what they need to work on next.

It was especially great to see our fencers performing well across U15, U17 and U20. A lot of work goes into these results week in, week out — from the fencers, the coaches and the families supporting them.

Well done to everyone who competed, and thanks as always to our coaches and families for all the support.

A great day on the piste and plenty to build on from here.

VICTORIAN STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS 2026

A fantastic day of competition for our young Tizona fencers at the U9, U11 & U13 Victorian State Championships!

🥇 U9 Women’s Foil — Olivia Song
🥈 U9 Women’s Foil — Esther Wang
🥈 U9 Women’s Epee — Olivia Song

🥇 U11 Women’s Foil — Mandy Mu
🥉 U11 Women’s Foil — Aubrey Huang
🥉 U11 Men’s Foil — Chengyu Ge
🥉 U11 Men’s Foil — Raphael Chan
🥈 U11 Women’s Epee — Emilia Zhang

🥇 U13 Women’s Foil — Ada Wang
🥈 U13 Women’s Foil — Sarah Wei
🥉 U13 Women’s Foil — Ivy Chen
🥈 U13 Men’s Foil — Eric Chen
🥉 U13 Men’s Foil — Matteo Canlas

🥇 U9 Mixed Sabre — Motong Xu

A special mention goes to Aubrey.

After a year and a half away from competition, she finally stepped onto the competition piste again — and came home with a bronze medal.

But what makes us proud isn’t just the medal.

During that year and a half, Aubrey kept showing up. She trained quietly, stayed patient, kept working, and most importantly, she never gave up.

Progress doesn’t always happen quickly, and hard work doesn’t always bring an immediate reward. Sometimes the most important thing a young athlete can learn is simply to keep going.

This bronze medal represents much more than a place on the podium. It represents persistence, patience and the courage to come back.

We are proud of every Tizona fencer who stepped onto the piste. Medals are valuable, but the discipline, effort and resilience built along the way are worth even more.

Keep going. Keep fighting. Keep growing.

Go Tizona!
