Olympic Fencing
Olympic Fencing is a competitive sport that involves two athletes using swords to score points by hitting their opponent. There are three disciplines: foil, épée, and sabre, each with different rules and target areas. Fencers wear protective gear, including masks, jackets, and gloves, to ensure safety during matches.
In Olympic Fencing, bouts are typically held on a 14-meter-long strip called a piste. Points are awarded based on the type of weapon used and the area of the body that is hit. The sport emphasizes speed, strategy, and agility, making it an exciting event in the Summer Olympics.
