Competition
LCC's Fencing Club competed in its first tournament on February 24, 2007 at Reed College in Portland. Our saber team (Doug Carter, Andrew Greig, and Jacob Rintoul, front row in the team picture below) took first place, competing against teams from Reed and the University of Oregon. Our foil team (Zach Greig, Corwyn Kiger, and David Meyers back row in team picture) took second place in a much larger field of teams.
Last year we took a record number of people to tournaments and traveled our furthest yet to attend a tournament.
Fencing Rules and Regulations
The 2007 Rule Book for fencing is a great place to learn the rules (complete with the Penalty Chart). The USFA Referee Handbook is another source for anyone interested in participating in the fencing club.
