About the Club
The Edmonton Fencing Club was founded in 1930 by a group of dedicated volunteers and enthusiasts. At the time, fencing was relatively unknown in Edmonton, but the founders' passion for the sport was contagious, and it quickly began to grow in popularity. Today, we are proud to be one of the largest and most active fencing clubs in the country.
We offer a wide range of fencing programs and classes, suitable for both recreational and competitive fencers.
