YOUTH SPORTS

FENCING Fencing is the Olympic sport of swordplay. This sport inherently practices social distancing. Students will learn the basics of attack and defense in fencing. Register with family members or friends to increase the fun! Fencers may choose to rent personal equipment or to purchase their own basic set (est. $111). To rent a personal set of equipment, contact Fencing Sports Club on voice only number 630.678.0035 to share body size and then you will simply attend the first class of the beginner session. When you rent a set, no one is guaranteed perfect fitting club equipment. If you prefer to purchase a personal beginner set, the club is happy to quickly assist with ordering from Blue Gauntlet. Participant must attend first class with their new set in hand. No class April 1.
