On International Women’s Day, we celebrate the women who strengthen and inspire our fencing community: our athletes, coaches, referees, and leaders across British Columbia.

As part of this moment, the BC Fencing Association has begun work to develop a clearer, more inclusive understanding of gender equity in our sport, following guidance from Canadian Women & Sport. If this is something that matters to you, we invite you to express your interest in being part of this work and helping shape the future of fencing in BC.
