Reading

En garde! A Fencing, the sport in which two people fight each other with swords, may seem as if it belongs in the past, but it's very much alive today. Interestingly, it is one of only five sports which have been performed at every single Olympic Games since the modern games started in 1896, the others being athletics, cycling, swimming and gymnastics. B An early version of fencing began in Spain, in the late fifteenth century, but the fencing we know today began in the eighteenth century in Italy and France. At that time it was common for a disagreement between two men to be settled by a duel – a sword fight. Fencing was taught in preparation for duelling and also as a sport. By the early twentieth century, duelling had died out, but the sporting side of fencing continued, with tournaments and championships. C Three weapons are used in fencing: the foil, épée and sabre. In all styles of fencing, the object is to touch your opponent with your weapon without being touched yourself, but the exact rules and methods of scoring vary depending on the weapon being used. All the weapons are in fact blunt. D Fencing is a great way to keep fit because it requires speed, strength and stamina, and it is also very suitable for disabled people to take up because it can be done sitting down. As well as wheelchair fencing, chair fencing – where able-bodied opponents sit in chairs and fence from a seated position – is another form of the sport. Both forms of seated fencing follow the same rules as standard fencing. E Fencing is not often taught in schools nowadays, but fencing clubs for adults and children are common, and participants can take part in competitions at local, national and international level. Children who enjoy stories like The Three Musketeers can enrol in classes and have fun fighting like their heroes!
