  • Fencing - Overview Fencing Is a Game in Which Is Played Between Two Fencers
    COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Fencing - Overview Fencing is a game in which is played between two fencers. Both the fencers use swords to attack the opponent and to defend self. There are some rules and regulations which the players have to follow while attacking or defending. Three different groups of weapons are used in fencing and each weapon has its own set of rules and regulations. Most of the fencers select one so as to specialise in using any one of these weapons. This is a sword exerting game where two fencers try to touch each other with the tip of their sword. The main objective of this game is to touch the other player and score enough points required to win the game before the opposite player scores points. There are different approved target zones based on the weapon used and players have to touch those target zones to score points. A Brief History of Fencing Fencing was initiated in the 12th century though the oldest surviving manual on swordsmanship dates around 1300. In ancient days in Rome and Egypt, fencing was quite popular and was an essential part of life in the form of swordsmanship. In the middle age, i.e. around 1400, the use of armours was introduced in order to make the game more defensive and interesting. THANKS FOR READING – VISIT OUR WEBSITE www.educatererindia.com COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Spain was the first one to practice fencing. Several books related to fencing have been written by Spanish authors.

  • Parent's Guide to Fencing
    A PARENT’S GUIDE TO FENCING 2007 EDITION Your Kids, Their Swords, and Surviving it all with your Sanity Intact Copyright © 2007 Fencing.Net, LLC – All Rights Reserved. Photos courtesy of and © FencingPhotos.com A PARENT’S GUIDE TO FENCING 2007 EDITION Fencing: A Comprehensive Parent’s Guide /Fencing/, noun 1: the art or practice of attack and defense with the foil, épée, or sabre 2: deriving from the expression, "The Art of Defense," meaning the art of defending one's self in combat. In the broadest possible sense, fencing is the art of armed combat involving weapons directly manipulated by hand, rather than shot or thrown. Why Fencing? If you’re reading this guide, you obviously have some interest in this unique activity. Maybe it’s the cool weapons that initially sparked your curiosity, or the distinctive clothes, or the intricate strategy involved. No matter your initial ingress into the world of fencing, the more you learn about it, the more you will want to participate. Coordination, speed, agility and self-assurance are just a few of the qualities this sport requires of its participants. A fencer needs not only to be quick of body but of mind as well. The intensity of fencing, and the extreme demands it places on one are a natural result of fencing's violent history. And while fencing has morphed from combat to sport, and possessing these skills no longer carries a life or death consequence, they are, however, in large part what make fencing such an exhilarating endeavor. A successful fencer must be capable of mounting powerful driving attacks or conversely, of making subtle and crafty defenses, all within the space of a few seconds.
