College Successes

Candlewood Fencing Center has a long standing tradition of having their fencers recruited by top college programs! Many have received monetary packages to aid in their recruitment. The NCAA currently offers 44 collegiate fencing teams and many more club programs for college-bound fencers to participate in. At Candlewood Fencing, we take college recruitment very seriously. We encourage and assist all of our college-bound fencers with each step of the recruitment process. We're quite proud of the accomplishments of our Candlewood alumns, both academically and athletically! Below are some of our Candlewood fencers that have gone on to fence in college programs.
