NJ Division Home ---> From The Webmaster

Welcome to the web site for the New Jersey Division of the United States Fencing Association (USFA). The purpose of this web site is to provide information about fencing in New Jersey: the names and locations of clubs and schools, where and when USFA competitions are held, and competition results.

New Jersey is fortunate in having one of the country's largest and strongest fencing communities, especially in the youth divisions. We have fencers ranging in experience from beginner to Olympic team member. We have many schools and clubs for fencing and a rich calendar of fencing competitions, making New Jersey one of the best places in the country to be a fencer.

My goal as webmaster is to provide timely information as quickly as possible, especially for competitions and their results, and make the site easy to navigate and quick to load in your browser. I generally post competition results shortly after receiving them. For fast-breaking information, we also have a message board, described below.

Again, welcome to New Jersey fencing. On occasion, I still get the opportunity to fence, and hope to see you at club or competition -- Jeff Savit.
