Students have been fencing at the university for almost 40 years, making the club one of the oldest on campus. Fencing is a unique and traditional Olympic sport that exercises not only the body, but also the mind. Strength, speed, and accuracy are important, but equally so are strategy, determination, and confidence. Our club trains in all three weapons - foil, sabre, and épée. The club is the per
fect place to start if you have never fenced before. We offer club sessions with a professional coach at a low market cost and our members are able to borrow all the required kit and weapons from the club. Training covers all three weapons, internal competitions and you will be able to represent the club in the BUCS league where we have a team dedicated to providing beginners with match experience. We are also a sociable and fun club and we welcome both staff and student. We can offer high-quality team sessions, one-on-one coaching and high performing men’s and women’s 2 teams in BUCS.
