All Armed Combat Sports

Combat sports in which the competitors use a blade or other weapon, scored by valid touches and technique rather than by injury. Fencing, with its foil, epee and sabre disciplines governed by the FIE, is the type case. What belongs here is a duelling sport where a weapon is central to the contest. Every sport filed in this group belongs to the Combat Sports category and has its own entry in the Sport and Games Atlas, from which a reader can follow links on to its leading athletes, its competitions and the governing bodies that set its rules.
