YOUTH SPORTS

Fencing Fencing is the Olympic sport of swordplay. Enjoy competitive fun safely without “fighting.” Students will learn the basics of attack and defense in fencing. Register with family members or friends to increase the fun! Additional family members receive a 50% discount when registering together. Instructor considers the height and ability of each fencer. Fencers may choose to share equipment from the club or purchase their own basic set (est. $124). To request shared equipment, please contact the Fencing Sports Club at 630.678.0035. Be sure to provide your body size, and then simply attend the first class of the beginner session. The set given to your fencer is at the discretion of the instructor. If you prefer to purchase a personal beginner set, the club is happy to quickly assist with ordering. Participants must attend first class with their new set in hand. At the end your experience as a beginner, you may have the club buy your equipment at 50% of purchase price. No class March 31.
