The modern sport of fencing has a long and storied tradition dating back to eighteenth-century European dueling and cavalry fighting. Fencing is one of only four sports to be featured in every modern Olympic Games, and it is one of five sports that make up the modern Pentathlon. Fencing has been called “a game of chess of the toes” — a challenging mix of physical and tactical training that is equally suitable for men and women, boys and girls of all ages. Today, the sport is growing in popularity in the United States under the guidance of the U.S. Fencing Association and locally in the New England Division.
