Etape incontournable du calendrier international, le Challenge SNCF Réseau est la dernière épreuve de coupe du monde sélective pour notre équipe de France avant les championnats d’Europe de Novi Sad (16-21 juin) et du monde de Wuxi en Chine (19-26 juillet). Créé en 1938 sous l’appellation Challenge Monal, en mémoire de l’épéiste René Monal, décédé lors d’une compétition à l’âge de 24 ans, puis devenu Challenge Réseau Ferré de France en 2012, l’étape parisienne de la coupe du monde d’épée hommes fait peau neuve en 2015 et devient Challenge SNCF Réseau. Lors de l’édition 2017, Yannick BOREL avait pris la deuxième place individuelle et l’équipe de France avait loupé le podium. Le Challenge SNCF Réseau 2018 sera l’occasion pour l’entraineur, Sébastien Barrois, de voir évoluer son collectif à domicile.

  • Cfcjan-Mar2021newsletter1
    JANUARY—FEBRUARY—MARCH 2021 COLUMBIACOLUMBIA FENCERS’ FENCERS’ CLUB NEWSLETTER CLUB Conditions are improving. Plans are progressing. Dear CFC Fencers and Friends, and our 82 prospective fencers also eager for us to resume meeting— What a year! I hope this newsletter finds you and your loved ones healthy, active, safely connected, and adapting as best possible to the challenges of these disrupted times. I’d hoped the decision to temporarily suspend all CFC meetings last March was an “overreaction” to the announcement of a pandemic. We had never before suspended meetings in our 35 year history. We continue to be eager to restart. Although COVID conditions don’t yet permit, things are finally moving in the right direction. The covid infection rate in the counties where we meet and where most of our clubmates live is still in or near the “High” category, but not 5 times the High category! I continue to monitor conditions daily. We are hoping that the B.1.1.7 (UK), B.1.351 (South African), & other variants will not cause a new spike in rates, and we urge everyone to continue to wear masks, safely physically distance, wash your hands, and get the vaccine when you are eligible to do so. These measures will speed our return to meeting. I appreciate your inquiries, eagerness, understanding, and patience. As noted previously, our priority is keeping all participants safe including our instructors who are at much higher risk owing to their greater exposure from multiple interactions. We are developing modified pro- tocols, just as our facilities, USA Fencing, and the FIE have, that will enhance pandemic safety for everyone when we return.

  • World Championship Fencing Individual Results
    World Championship Fencing Individual Results by George Masin This report shows the individual event medallists at every FIE World Championship (cadet, junior, senior, and veteran). Fencing World Championship Individual Medalists 1921 European Championships (Paris, FRA - 1921.VI.10-11) Prior to 1921 there were a number of competitions that called themselves World Championships. These were usually challenge matches between two fencers each or both of which called themselves world champions. Prior to the establishment of the Federation Internationale d’Escrime (FIE) in 1913, however, there was no international body to sanction a real world championship. It was not until after World War I and the 1920 Olympic Games, though, that the FIE finally sanctioned a championship. In these early championships, each country was allowed to enter a maximum of eight fencers. From 1921 through 1936 (except in the Olympic years of 1924 and 1928) the FIE sanctioned yearly competitions called the “Championnats d'Europe” (“European Championships”). In spite of their name, non-Europeans were allowed to compete in them and so these competitions are considered to be the first world championships for fencing. It was not until 1937 that the FIE officially changed the name of the competitions from “Championnats d'Europe” to “Championnats du Monde”. Men's Epee Individual (1921.VI.10-11) The European Championships were held as one of the events during the Grande Semaine des Armes de Combat which ran from June 5 to 12 and included the French national fencing championships and other fencing events as well as shooting events. Only one European Championship event was contested: men's epee individual.
