<p>Mrbotts: </p> <hr /> <div>'''Fencing''' is the [[olympics|Olympic]] Games version of [[sword]] fighting. It is also one of the disciplines of the modern [[pentathlon]].<br /> <br /> It is governed by the FIE (Federation D'Internationale D'Escrime).<br /> <br /> Three classes of weapons are included in fencing:<br /> <br /> *Foil (Only hits with the point are legal, making contact to the torso (including the groin).)<br /> <br /> *Epee (Only hits with the point, striking anywhere.)<br /> <br /> *Sabre (Hits with either point or edge are legal, making contact anywhere above the waist.)<br /> <br /> Fencing bouts are generally decided by the first competitor to reach 5 points, but historically, epee bouts were often decided by a single hit.<br /> <br /> Some historical thought was also given to having an Olympic fencing event for the [[bayonet]].<br /> <br /> [[Category:Sports]]</div>
