This two-day Fencing Championship is being conducted on behalf of the Chennai District Association.

We are consistently providing professional training to students interested in fencing through our association.

Many of our trainees have participated in various tournaments and won accolades.

We hope that all students learn this art of fencing, participate in global events like the Olympics and World Championships, and bring pride to our nation.

Fencing offers promising opportunities for securing jobs through sports quotas.

We are proud that one of our trainees, fencer Bhavani Devi, has participated in the Olympics.

Unlike other sports, fencing improves cognitive abilities and intelligence. As a result, students not only excel academically but can also achieve great success in the field of sports.
