Frisco Fencing Academy located at 6226 All Stars Ave, Frisco, TX 75033 offers fencing training to youth who aspire to play the sport.
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, while becoming physically fit and healthy; and, most importantly, they learn to make complex decisions, analyze problems and think quickly. These ideals help children reach their potential in many areas other than fencing.
Additionally, fencing sport is a well recognized sport & often fencing youth secure admissions in top colleges in US. Being a successful fencer ranked in the top 50 or so of National Points List for Juniors during junior year of high school is one way to demonstrate excellence. A position within the top 50 opens the way for a fencer to be recruited to a Division 1 NCAA fencing team at some of the elite colleges.
There are three disciplines in modern fencing. They are - the foil, the épée, and the sabre. Frisco Fencing focuses on Sabre fencing discipline.
“Saber fencing is like Formula 1 racing,” said U.S. Olympic men’s saber fencer Daryl Homer. “It’s aggressive, fast and requires split-second decision making.”
While saber is the quickest, most aggressive style of fencing, epee is the most defensive, requiring high skills to stop an opponent attempting to score a point. Counter moves are crucial.
