Ready to try something different? Come fence with us.

​

Whether you’ve never picked up an épée or you’ve been fencing for years, there’s a spot for you here.

​

Fencing isn’t an official sport in Georgia high schools—it’s a club activity—but don’t let that fool you. We train weekly and represent Lassiter in monthly tournaments from September through February. All competition is épée-only, and practices run once a week from the start of fall semester through February break. Participation is encouraged but flexible.

 

So why fencing?

​

Because it's more than just a sport. It's a mental battle that sharpens your focus, builds confidence, and teaches strategy, discipline, and resilience. You'll move fast, think faster, and push yourself in ways you never expected.
 

And despite what most people assume, fencing is actually one of the safest sports. Modern protective equipment, strict safety standards, and an emphasis on control make serious injuries remarkably rare. It may involve swords, but it's often safer than many traditional school sports.

​

At Lassiter, you’re not just joining a team—you’re joining a community. We celebrate victories, learn from losses, and build lasting friendships.
​
Since the 2007-08 season, we've been proud Georgia High School Fencing League members. Our club has earned individual titles and team accolades—and we’re just getting started.

Fun. Friendship. Competition. Welcome to the strip.​​
