What is Fencing?
Fencing is an organized combat sport involving the use of a sword for attack and defense according to set movements and rules. The sport involves two fencers using their sword with techniques (attacks, parries, riposetes, etc.) to score points against their opponent. There are three disciplines of fencing – Foil, Epee, and Sabre.
