Cambridgeshire Fencing Club is a three weapons club for men and women welcoming social as well as competitive fencers. We use a number of electric pistes for all three weapons. Several coaches cover all levels of proficiency in all 3 weapons. We often have company from members of Cambridge Sword, the University and other neighbouring fencing clubs.  We cater for the age group 16+; would younger fencers please contact Cambridge Sword or Cambrigde Cadets .
