Fencing Info

Learn more about the history of fencing, its three weapon types, and more:

  • How do I become a member?
    In order to compete at provincially sanctioned events, you must purchase a BCFA license. All additional licenses, included coaching, referee, and armoury, can be found here for the 2022/2023 season.
  • Do I need an Associate or a Provincial Membership?
    Provincial memberships are for athletes who train or compete at any level. ​Associate memberships are for parents or volunteers who don't fence at all. If an associate member trains or competes at a club event, they are not covered by BCFA insurance.
  • Where can I fence?
    British Columbia is vast with many fencing clubs to choose from. From Vernon to Victoria, we have facilities to meet your fencing needs all across the province. ​Check out our clubs page to find a fencing club near you!
  • Where can I find competitions/results?
    Almost all domestic and U.S. fencing competitions and results can be found through AskFred.net. The Candian Fencing Federation website is also a good place to find domestic competition and result information!
