Open Events
The Commonwealth Fencing Open Championships is held every four years, in the same year as the Commonwealth Games, and is sanctioned by the Commonwealth Games Federation.
One of the objectives of the Commonwealth Fencing Federation is to have Fencing included in the Commonwealth Games, but at present the event is run independently.
Upcoming Championships
2010
No firm bids have been received to host the 2010 Commonwealth Fencing Open Championships. At the Madrid Council Meeting, Canada expressed an interest in hosting the event, but have now advised they are unable to do so.
The Commonwealth Fencing Federation has issued a call for Expressions of Interest in hosting the event. Any country willing to submit an Expression of Interest should do so by 31 August 2008. Please read the Expression of Interest document for more information.
2014
Formal bids have not yet been called for the 2014 Commonwealth Fencing Open Championships. However, Scotland has indicated that they will be seeking to host the event at around the same time as the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
Hosting the Championships
The CFF Competition Handbook provides guidance to organisers from the initial bid through to the actual event.
