Fencing

The art of sword fighting has been practiced for thousands of years and continues today in the modern sport of fencing.

One of only four sports to have been at every Olympic Games since 1896, fencing requires technical ability, timing and discipline as much as physical fitness. 

The TEAMBrookes Fencing Club offers the opportunity to learn, train and compete in all three weapons (foil, epee and sabre) with all equipment provided for beginners. 

We have a Men's and Women's Team who compete in the British Universities & Colleges Sport (BUCS) Leagues, as well as at BUCS Nationals and also other local and national events.

Want to join?

You can reach out to the club directly on social media to find out more and get involved:

For the majority of our TEAMBrookes Sports Clubs, trials and taster sessions take place following the TEAMBrookes Sports Fair. If you miss the Sports Fair or would like to join later in the year, please reach out to the club directly through social media.
