Training

Welcome to train with us during the 2024–2025 season!

LundsAFK is a small club, beginners train with experienced competitive fencers.

If you have fenced before and want to start again, please contact us!

Training Structure

LundsAFK offers high-quality fencing classes in an enjoyable and friendly environment for all levels. Competitive and recreational fencers fence at the same time, on all weapons. This setup allows you to fence at your own pace while also having the opportunity to challenge yourself against more experienced fencers and learn from observing them.

Our main focus is foil and sabre, but we also offer training on epee (épée).

Our training follows the follow structure:

  • Warm-Up
  • Footwork and light technical training
  • Group sparring with individual lessons

Training Schedule

We have trainings on Mondays & Wednesdays,

19.00-21.00

As a fencer, you are insured

SvFF’s sports insurance is arranged via Folksam and covers all members of LundsAFK. Participants in “try fencing” are also covered by the insurance. The insurance covers accidental damage that occurs during training, competition and camps (also abroad and during travel to/from the activity) arranged by SvFF or LundsAFK. However, the insurance is not comprehensive. Read more on Folksam’s website folksam.se (in Swedish) and on the Swedish Fencing Association’s website svenskfaktning.se (in Swedish).

Remember that when you travel within the EU, you need to have your European health insurance card with you. You can easily order it on the Social Insurance Agency’s website forsakringskassan.se

On the SvFF’s website it says, among other things: “Check that your private accident insurance is also valid abroad, that it entitles you to rehabilitation and that the disability compensation is high enough. It has also been shown that some insurance companies (e.g. Trygg-Hansa) can exclude accidents that occur during training or competition when the insured represents a sports association. Choose as a fencer a company that does not have this exception.”

LundsAFK partners with IKLINIK and Viklinik Vårdcentral in Lund and Malmö.

Our active fencers get a quick appointment for assessment and examination in Lund, Malmö or online. Get in touch info@lundsafk.se for detailed instruction.
