Keeping the San Francisco Bay Area en garde!

Discover the fastest-growing sport in the Bay Area — the Olympic sport of fencing.SFFC

Building on the centuries-old traditions of European dueling and swordsmanship, modern Olympic fencing turns a once fatal practice into a safe and enjoyable sport.

Fencing is fast-moving and strategic, allowing you to match wits with your opponent in an exhilarating one-on-one competition. Here are some of the many benefits of this challenging discipline:

  • Develops motor skills and hand-eye coordination
  • Provides a rigorous workout
  • Enhances strength and flexibility
  • Builds character and confidence
  • Accessible for all ages and both genders

Best of all, it’s incredibly fun!

San Francisco Fencers’ Club is quickly becoming the premier fencing club in the Bay Area. We offer competitive and recreational fencing for ages five and up in a fun and safe environment. We believe that everyone has the ability to learn, perform, and excel. If you’ve always wanted to try fencing yourself or are looking for a place where your child can learn it, our club is the ideal choice.

Our fencers regularly compete in national and international tournaments at the Cadet and Junior levels, and several have reached the top 20.
