The International Fencing Federation recently released a 3 part Video series on Youtube

entitled “En Garde” celebrating the 2013 Centenary of the FIE.

Part 1 FIE 

Part 2 FIE

Part 3 FIE

In 2013 a number of rules were updated/created/amended at the FIE Congress.

Refer to the FIE rules below for the exact text of the rule or rule change.

*  In foil, beats on the lower third of the blade will now be considered parries by the opponent – t.56.4.
*  The absence of blade contact will no longer be a criterion for non-combativity – t.87.4.2.
*  There will be no penalty for simple corps a corps for foil and sabre, but the referee still calls “Halt!” – t.20.2 / t.20.3.
*  Visor masks will be forbidden in all weapons – Material Rules Annex A.2.1.2.
*  Insulting a referee will be an immediate Group 4 offence (Black card) – t.82.3(b).
*  Violently or dangerously throwing one’s mask is a Group 4 offence (Black Card) – t.87.3(b)
*  Fencers passing each other on the strip must do so completely before the referee calls “Halt!” – t.21.3
*  Foil and sabre fencers must have a spare mask wire at the side of the strip – t.45.
*  Foils and epees must be made of maraging steel – this is generally the case at the moment.

Full rule information can be found on the Documents and Policies web page on the AFF webpage.

After the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics the Games move on to Brazil 2016.

Australia finished 10th on the Medal Placings (our Lowest placing in 20 years at ’92 Olympics), not surprising considering the population and the funding compared to other more supported countries.

Hopefully the younger generation watching these Fantastically run Olympics will be inspired and join their local sporting organisations!

The FIE has announced a change of regulation to the ruling 

t.28.1            If a competitor crosses one the lateral boundaries of the piste, they must step back one metre from the point where they left the piste; and if they go off the piste during an attack they must return to the position they occupied when they started their attack and then step back a further metre

[but cf t.29 still remains] A competitor who involuntarily crosses one of the boundaries of the strip as the result of any accidental cause (such as jostling) incurs no penalty whatever.

The FIE has announced that the World Championships date will be changing timeslot from season 2012/13 onwards: to a window between July 15th – August 15th.

This will ultimately change the calendar in Fencing in various ways.

It may change Australian Fencing schedules…

Keep an eye out for updates…
