As always, please let us know if you have any questions about your membership or how to renew it.
 
Additionally, ALL Fencers Club members must have at least a non-competitive membership to USA Fencing (10/season). There are also other types of membership including Competitive, Collegiate and Life.

Now is the perfect time to buy new equipment for the upcoming fencing season and the Pro Shop is stocked for whatever you need to compete!
 
Our members continue to get exactly what they need at the online price from our vendors. If you don't know what you would like to purchase yet, gift certificates are available. 
 
All net proceeds go to the Fencers Club Scholarship Fund, which supports athletes as they train, travel and compete. Please support your club and your teammates!
