What we do

Fencing is a unique sport that has so many benefits, but many kids (and parents) miss this sport opportunity because it’s not familiar as football, soccer, or baseball.

We want to change this. We want to get into your school or your organization. We want to teach your young kids, in small groups, to fence!

We want to encourage and help them become community leaders

Gear Up! Gear Up!

We want to lead by example, we do good, so others can too!

Leadership! Leadership!

We want the wonderful developmental benefits to apply for all kids. Mostly, we want to make fencing fun and accessible to all young kids who might otherwise not get a chance to.

Camps! Camps!

Through fencing, we want them to learn grit and resilience – truly fighting for a cause!

Fence-A-Thon! Fence-A-Thon!

We want them to understand what it means to help, and for them to see and feel the impact of giving back.
