What does it cost to compete?

Fencing is a relatively inexpensive sport, until you begin traveling to other states to compete at the national level, but there are initial costs to consider for even local tournaments. Local fees average $20.00 per event (a tournament is comprised of several events). National tournaments can cost $60 and up per event. Other costs for tournaments may include travel, meal and lodging expenses and coaches fees.

Coach’s fees -

Coaches are assigned to the team trip if 5 or more fencers commit. The fencers attending the trip pay “coaches fees.” These fees reimburse the coach for lodging, meals and travel expenses, and are collected from all fencers attending the trip. The more fencers attending, the less the expenses to the individual. Fencers are welcome to travel and lodge with the team or with their parent, this has no effect on coaches’ fees. Other staff and team representatives may be sent on various trips to act as coordinators for the team. These people will be identified prior to the trip announcement and may consist of parent volunteers, staff, or other interested parties who are going to the tournament anyway and will not usually receive reimbursement. If a very large team is going to a tournament, one or two of the adults who are planning on attending may be asked to act as team chaperones and may receive reimbursement for their lodging. (Team chaperones usually are asked to share a room with 2-3 youth/junior fencers.)

USFA Membership -

Membership in the United States Fencing Association is a requirement for anyone competing in local or national tournaments. Fencers who desire to compete only at the local level may join as “Fence for Fun” members. Fence for Fun members may not compete in the Division or Sectional qualifying tournaments. Membership forms are always available at the club. Fees are $60 for one year (August-July).
