Fencing

FENCING SNAPSHOT

Fencing is a fast-paced Olympic combat sport that combines speed, precision, strategy, and agility. It has three sub-disciplines, namely, Foil, Épée, and Sabre—differing in weapon types and bout formats but all requiring quick decision-making, technical excellence, and tactical awareness. Fencing is one of the few sports to have featured in every modern Olympic Games since 1896 and it currently offers 12 medal events, including individual and team competitions for both men and women across all three weapons.

"It was difficult to train in Manipur because we lacked suitable facilities and had to travel quite a distance to the academy. At Vijayi Bharat, we have access to foreign coaches, hostels and all sports science support within the campus itself. Here, each athlete receives individual attention which is essential for us. I'm excited to bring home medals and make my country proud." ABI DEVI Fencing (Sabre) "The fencing facilities at Vijayi Bharat are the best. My training with International coaches and the Indian coaches has helped me in mastering the techniques and fighting style in Sabre. I also want to thank the academy's entire sports science team for helping me with my rehab. My goal is to compete at the Olympics, hence I intend to give my best in all the future competitions." SHREYA GUPTA Fencing (Sabre Team event) Bronze Medalist Junior Asian Fencing Championship, 2022 "Vijayi Bharat Foundation’s world-class fencing facilities and expert coaching—both international and Indian—have sharpened my foil technique and fighting style. With the support of the sports science team, I’m now focused on my ultimate goal: competing at the international level." Prachi Foil Fencer Gold Medalist Asian Cadet Cup (2025)
