History

Established in 2002.

IWFC was founded in 2002 by a local family so their three young fencers could practice closer to home. The club quickly grew and in 2003 Vicki and her husband joined the club. As both had experience in teaching fencing, both were soon assisting with, then later fully teaching new fencers. In 2005 the club was turned over to her and September 2009 saw IWFC taking possession of its own floorspace, enabling an expanded offering of instruction and interaction with the surrounding community.
