Wheelchair Fencing

The USFA organizes two NAC Wheelchair tournaments each season, usually held in conjunction with the October NAC and the March NAC. The Wheelchair Fencing Championships are held during April.

The Wheelchair Committee is tasked with selection criteria for international teams, training camps and clinics, and plans for broader development of wheelchair fencing through expansion of available coaches to train wheelchair fencing athletes.

The United States fielded its first official Paralympic Fencing team at the 1996 Olympic Games held in Atlanta, GA.

Refer to chapter 14 of the Athlete Handbook for information regarding rules and equipment.
