Welcome To Calgary Community Fencing Association
We work to provide accessible sport through fencing to communities throughout Calgary!
Who we are
Calgary Community Fencing Association is a non-profit Local Sport Association dedicated to the accessibility and development of the sport of fencing for children and youth at the introductory and community levels.
Calgary Community Fencing Association’s community programs offer participants the opportunity to try a new and exciting sport activity option in their own community, or one near it
Our mission
- To introduce basic fencing skills and rules in cooperation with partners and groups utilizing the concepts of fair play, fun and respect for a safe environment
- To introduce participants of all ages to the sport and support their individual development
- To develop basic motor skills (agility, balance, coordination) as well as physical fitness
- To provide an opportunity for participants to try fencing for the first time or to continue participation within their community
Promoting an active lifestyle
Calgary Community Fencing Association provides meaningful sport participation through Olympic Fencing to children, youth and adults with a community-driven focus. It is our belief that communities, schools and families should be the first and most important element of a sport system which promotes all participants to be more active more often.
We facilitate accessibility to our programming through partnership with community associations, schools and local fencing clubs. We provide opportunity for a seamless transition from first-time experience to fundamentals to active for life participation. Participants who wish to continue to in a training / competitive context are supported by transition to club fencing.
