Mid-South Fencers’ Club offers the exciting, dynamic Olympic and Paralympic sport of fencing for people ages 7 and up in the Research Triangle of North Carolina. We teach classes and camps, offer individual and group lessons, and hold tournaments for all three Olympic-style weapons: foil, epee and saber. Since our dedicated club space opened in 2008, Mid-South quickly earned a reputation of being one of the best places to fence and train in the United States and is ranked among 600 USA Fencing Member clubs since 2014 as one of National Fencing Club Rankings’ (NFCR’) “Best Fencing Clubs.” In 2018, Mid-South became a USA Fencing Club of Distinction in the category of Diversity and Women’s Programming.
Backed by our highly skilled and qualified staff, we offer a fencing home for all fencers, from beginners to competitors with collegiate, national, or international aspirations and experience. We also have the national and international results to back us up. Whether you come to Mid-South to learn the basics or to train for a competitive goal, we are here to meet your challenge, inspire, and support you in a fun and dynamic sport.
