Who We Are
The UT Fencing Club provides members of the University community the opportunity to develop their fencing skills and increase their enjoyment of the sport through participation in organized drills, bouting, and tournaments. We practice all three fencing weapons: foil, epee, and saber, and compete in the Southwest Intercollegiate Fencing Association tournament circuit. Each year, we also send a team to Intercollegiate Nationals, competing with schools like the Naval Academy, Michigan, and UC Berkeley in the team and individual events. Outside of fencing, we encourage members to make new friends and take advantage of the extended social network our club has to offer. As a RecSports club, we also give back to the Austin community by participating in community service events together.
What We're Fundraising For
Each year, our club attends the Intercollegiate National Championships. This is our most expensive event due to the combined cost of travel, accommodation, and registration fees for our team and members. While the cost is covered in part by dues and a yearly tournament that we host, this, in turn, limits other investments we can make, such as equipment purchases. Thus, the proceeds of gifts will be used to help cover tournament expenses and equipment purchases, allowing our members to enjoy the sport of fencing at the lowest cost.
Your Impact
Your gifts will allow us to bring more people into the sport. With the help from the university and donors, we are reducing the cost of dues and paying for the tournaments which allow students to enjoy practicing and competing without worrying about finances. We provide all of the necessary gear for our members to compete. Your gifts will help us to ensure that everyone has access to better equipment and better tools to practice with.
