NSW Fencing Centre

The NSW Fencing Centre offers beginners programs for fencers of all ages!

We have a host of programs for those who are new to the sport and would like to get started fencing.

BEGINNERS

Kids from 6yrs can try this exciting sport! Here we lay a solid foundation for each new fencer. Athletes are not only trained in the essential skills, but also are exposed to the fundamentals of tactics.

INTERMEDIATE

Fencing classes for intermediate fencers. Having learnt the basics, athletes are encouraged to compete and train consistently. Promotes quick decision making, instinctive fencing, knowledge of priority and appropriate techniques.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

The NSW Fencing Centre, clubs and fencing schools will generally be able to lend you basic equipment.

If you want to continue in the sport, pretty soon you’ll want your own gear. A fencing kit generally comprises a mask, jacket, plastron (protective vest), breeches, glove, long socks, sports shoes, weapons and bodywires.

AT WHAT AGE CAN MY CHILDREN START?

Generally from about 6 upwards. The youngest age groups for state competitions are Under 8, Under 10 and Under 12 through to older kids
