The assault is a form of light-contact fencing where full-power strikes are prohibited. This type of confrontation is popular with the majority of our members, particularly women and young people.


The assault is judged using a single score that takes into account, on the one hand, the technical skill and style demonstrated by the fencer, and on the other hand, the precision of the touches, where full-power strikes are strictly forbidden; therefore, attempting to knock out a competitor is completely prohibited.
