American Fencing League
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The American Fencing League, or AFL, was founded on March 25, 2005 in Salem, Oregon, United States, by a group of fencers seeking independence from the United States Fencing Association.
The AFL is a non-profit organization for fencers who wish to enjoy fencing using standard (that is, non-electric) foil, sabre, and épée. Competition is currently on local and divisional levels, with plans to extend to sectional and national levels. The AFL provides rules, maintains a classification system for members, organizes competitions, and provides training for fencers, teachers, and officials.
