Swordplay Camps 

Swordplay Camps will enable the new fencer to learn what he or she needs to start off on the right foot in this demanding Olympic Sport. 

• With all safety equipment, weapons, and gear provided, the fencer (and his or her parent) will get a real feel for the skills this sport requires. 

• Fencing is a unique and beautiful sport and our newest fencers will learn a little bit about the history and background of fencing, as well. 

• Students in these camps will cross swords with each other every day and by the time they are finished, they are ready to start the introductory fencing classes held at Fresno Fencing Club.
