Fencing rankings & results, where to find them

USA Fencing tracks two different things: your classification (the A-E letter rating) and your points ranking (national and regional standings). Here's what each means and exactly where to look your fencer, or anyone, up.

1. Classifications (the A-E letters)

Earned by placing at tournaments, these seed events and never expire (they carry the year earned, like "B24"). Full explanation in our ratings guide.

2. Points rankings (national & regional)

Separately, USA Fencing keeps rolling points standings by weapon and age category (Youth, Cadet, Junior, Senior, Veteran) that decide national-event seeding and team selection. Points come from regional (RYC/RJCC) and national (NAC) events.

How to look up your club: search it on FencingTracker to see its members, their ratings and recent results, every club page here links straight to it.
