Fencing Wallpapers

Fencing is a thrilling and contemporary competitive sport requiring skilled use of the sport's three weapons: the foil, the epee, and the saber. Each weapon has its rules and regulations, and individual and team competitions are available. The epee and the foil are pointed thrust weapons, while the saber can both thrust and cut through the blade edges of the sword. In the dagger, the blade's body counts in addition to the tip, and bouts last only a few seconds on average, making it faster and more robust than the other two disciplines.

Fencing is one of the oldest modern Olympic sports, having long been divided into three disciplines, or weapons, based upon a sword for practice. It dates back to the 12th century, when it was used to train men for sword battles. Today, Fencing has been modernized and continues to be a part of the Olympic program, with male and female athletes from countries worldwide competing.

Although the use of the sword dates back to prehistoric times and swordplay dates back to ancient civilizations, organized fencing sports started in the late 19th century. Fencing emerged in the late 19th century with Italian schools adapting Europe's historic martial art, classical Fencing. In contrast, French schools would later perfect the Italian system. Fencing was also gaining popularity in France, where Camille Prevost assembled the first fundamental congress.
Fencing is a high-speed sport where two athletes fight against each other using sword-like weapons for offense and scoring points and for defense against the opponent's attacks. It is a fundamental fencing technique called a thrust, in which one fencer reaches out their hand to announce an attack on their opponent and attempts to tap the other fencer on the target area.
