Welcome to Swansea University Fencing Club!
We have numerous fencers each year which both compete and coach, enabling us to take people from any ability. So, if you (like many people) have never fenced, you are just as welcome as those who have fenced before.

We understand that Fencing is not the most common sport, and for a lot of you it will be the first time in doing the sport, this is why we will be running an initial taster session at the start of term, and during our weekly training we will be combining quality coaching with sparring.
Want to join after the taster session? We still welcome new members throughout the year, feel free to come along to a training session any week to try out the sport! (First Session is always free)
