North American Cups

The North American Cup (NAC) tournaments are a series of tournaments organized by the US Fencing Association.  These tournaments give fencers from across the world the opportunity to fence each other in similar ability/age competitions.  US Fencing members are eligible to enter NAC tournaments if they meet the criteria of the specific competition.  NAC tournaments are open to foreign fencers who have an FIE license valid for the current season or can show proof of membership in another fencing federation, and who meet age/classification requirements for specific NAC competitions.  US Fencers must be current members of the US Fencing Association, but do not need their membership number to register for National Events.
