  • I will not speak poorly of, threaten or otherwise abuse/harass/discriminate another fencer, parent, official or spectator. This includes at home, work, school or social functions as well as in the salle.
  • I will endeavor to keep all communication positive and problem resolution based with coaches, parents and officials within the sport.  I will agree to the 24-hour rule before contacting another member of the club.

  • I will put school first, making sure that fencing follows completion of all homework.
  •  will encourage my teammates in all ways

Competition

  • I will treat all fencers, officials and spectators with utmost respect.  This means no dispute of calls, language or actions on the piste that are offensive and that I accept loss and victory with equal graciousness.  I am to develop as a fencer first and foremost.
  • My coaches have the absolute final word on my competition, including removal for breeching conduct, poor sportsmanship or other matters. I understand that winning is not as important as character and development and will abide by decisions of the coaches to this end.
