USA Fencing
For insurance reasons, all students are required to have an active membership with USA Fencing. Upon completion of a 90-day trial membership, students will need an access or competitive membership which start at $30 a year. If you are the parent of multiple children who may start fencing we recommend making a profile for yourself and then listing them as dependents.
