We are a British Fencing registered fencing club located in Bristol.
BF Club Membership Number: 959078

We specialise in foil and sabre but are also able to offer adult epee fencers a space to train on Tuesday evenings.

Our coaches possess expertise, experience, and enthusiasm, having spent years imparting knowledge about the sport in a wide range of settings.

Bristol Blades were the 2020 winner of the British Fencing “Community Club of the Year” award.

We are committed to ensuring that all members, regardless of their skill level, receive excellent coaching and enjoy a passionate, engaging training environment. From beginners to international athletes, we want to provide quality coaching and fun experiences.

The club aims to help fencers of all levels and ages achieve their fullest potential while championing inclusivity and fair play. Our sport is suitable for everyone, from beginners to seasoned competitors and kids to adults.

The club currently runs two nights a week at two different locations. We run senior and junior sessions (ages 7+) at both locations. We run throughout the year, with a small number of breaks when our venues are closed over the holiday periods.
