Spectators are welcome and can drop by anytime to watch a real fencing tournament. Experienced fencers who want to compete should make sure to renew their competitive passport via the CFF webpage: https://www.fencing.ca/content/membership-registration.

We are also looking for volunteers to help with setting up, taking down, score keeping, armoury table and registration desk. If you would like to volunteer contact us at fencingubc@gmail.com.

If you would like to compete but do not have a full set of electric gear, the club has a limited amount that we can lend to fencers for the day - we will only lend out equipment if you contact us in advance and request the items that you need. First e-mailed, first served.

Competitors, volunteers, and associates are invited to join us for dinner after the tournament; simply RSVP via e-mail or Facebook once the location has been agreed upon.

Looking forward to another year of fierce competition and fun!

Club Secretary
