Event programmes

Every RAF competition requires details to be readily available to RAFFU members to ensure they know the location, format and timetable for each event.

A programme is produced and distributed to all RAF Stations for dissemination by Unit P Ed O's. Electronic versions are available online for those personnel who may not receive the paperwork.

Command Championships

Nominally held on the 1st weekend in February at RAF Cosford, each Command holds a separate competition to determine their Champions. This is then followed by an Inter Command competition at all 3 weapons to determine who is the best Command.

Inter Service Championships

The premier event in the fencing calendar,this week long event always brings excitement. In addition to the Inter Service Triangular match, pitting RAF, RN and Army teams against each other, the individual events pit the top 12 fencers in each weapon from each Service against each other to determine the Combined Service champions

One Hit Epee

Many competitions rolled into one, the One Hit epee has individual (mens and ladies), scratch team and Inter Unit titles to offer. If that isn't enough, the International Military event also takes place pitting RAF, Army, RN, Veterans (and in previous years Met Police and Civil Service) against each other in a rolling 45 event which always proves to be extremely close.

Junior Championships

Decorative

The Junior Championships exclude any fencer who has received their RAF Blues or won the Junior Master-at-Arms title in the past. This provides the Junior fencers with a chance to demonstrate their abilities without having to face the RAF "big guns", and always leads to an exciting competition, with the Master-at-Arms elevated to Senior status.
