What is Fencing?

Fencing is one of only five sports to have appeared in every modern Olympic Games. Two competitors face off in a 'fight', and compete to score points. To beat an opponent, a fencer must score a set number of points using blade work, footwork, tactics and strategy. Fencing fights are characterised by flurries of speed, highly aerobic movement, and lightning-fast blade movements.
