Yes - we take safety very seriously. While the sport originated from honor duels to the death, we have moved far away from that. Our weapons are not sharp and the tips are flat and designed to register a score on a machine, not to puncture an opponent. All fencers must wear a fencing mask, designed with steel mesh to protect the head and face. Fencers wear jackets and gloves designed to withstand punctures and plastic chest protector beneath their fencing jacket, for extra chest protection.

Yes! You can stop by any time during open fencing. Mondays and Wednesdays at 7:15 p.m. are probably best, as one of our coaches is usually available. We’ll answer questions, and if you're interested, we’ll suit you up and let you try it!

Costs vary based on the type of membership you’re interested in getting. Please refer to the Register Today page for further information. We also have discounts for additional family members.

LFC has equipment for you to borrow during classes or open fencing. You can show up and suit up.

The rule of thumb is if Lincoln Public Schools are closed due to inclement weather or holidays, then Lincoln Fencing Club will also be closed.
