Auckland Swords Club is a sport fencing club that trains in foil and épée, and it describes itself as one of the oldest sport fencing clubs in New Zealand. It was established in 1935 and has run continuously since 1937. It has more than 100 members, from ages 10 to 70 and over, and it caters for beginners, competitors and people who fence for fitness or relaxation. Training is led by qualified coaches.
The club meets in the old gymnasium at Auckland Grammar School, off Mountain Road at Gate 3 in Epsom. Sessions run on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, and on Sunday from 1pm to 3pm. The season runs from mid-January to mid-December. Beginners can join an eight-week introductory course, and the fourth term runs from 13 October to 8 December. Fencers must wear trackpants or fencing breeches, not shorts or tights. Visiting fencers get their first visit free.
