According to the Aspen Institute, “The number of kids playing sports keeps decreasing.” Fencing is a fun and exciting sport that is engaging to youth across the city. Many of the Foundation’s programs are at record attendance levels. One of the major goals of the program is to create sports equality across the city. In the Aspen Institute’s summary, “Children from homes in the lowest income bracket are far more likely to be physically inactive than kids from wealthier households.”

Denver Fencing Foundation is bringing fencing to Denver area schools through after-school enrichment programs, camps, field days, and other outreach events. We want to inspire athletes to compete and to keep kids active in sports programs throughout their entire lives. Many of our worthy athletes have fenced local, regional, national, and international leveled competitions!
