Club Objective

Our Mission:

The NIU Fencing Club is determined to teach those who are interested in the techniques and history of fencing. We hope to spread the knowledge of fencing to others, and revive a sport that has been declining in popularity in recent years. Fencing is a competitive sport to some, and a leisure hobby to others. However you wish to enjoy the fencing experience, we intend to give you a place to let those interests loose and knowledge broaden. For those who wish to compete, we hold in-club tournaments in the spring and fall, and occasionally participate in tournaments at other schools when we have the opportunity. Those looking for a new hobby, fencing practice is the perfect time to unwind from the hustle and bustle of university life!
