“How do I get my last name on the back of my jacket or lamé?”
All fencers are required to have their last name on their uniform, either on the back of the jacket/lamé or the rear thigh of the knickers, at all National and International Events.
We recommend all our athletes use Marx Enterprises to stencil their names on their uniforms. Marx Enterprises is trusted and right here in Portland.
Marx Enterprises is an independent business and is not employed or operated by NWFC employees. They accept cash or check. NWFC can not charge a credit card.

Announcing the Athena Project!
Announcing The Athena Project! The Athena Project is an all-new Northwest Fencing Center initiative. Designed to support women and girls in fencing, the program will bring together athletes of all ages and skill levels for an exclusive training experience. The key to this support is the creation of women-only fencing spaces that transcend age groups.

Fall Changes for the 23-24 Season
Fall Changes There are a few changes to NWFC membership, classes, and policies for the 2023-2024 season. Read below for details on what is being changed this...
2023 Summer Nationals Results
With the 2023 summer nationals coming to an end, we have many results and other accomplishments to celebrate. Our fencers earned medals, their NWFC patches, and one athlete even qualified for the world team!
Volunteering
NWFC wouldn’t be the club it is today without help from its volunteers. They help run tournaments and special events, supporting the club in many ways.
When you volunteer at NWFC you will learn more about fencing, meet other members of the community, and help develop the sport of fencing. We encourage all members of the NWFC community to volunteer, whether they are athletes, parents, or friends.
For Parents:
Our articles ‘For Parents’ cover topics like where to put your child’s patch, how our class graduation process works, and more.
If there’s something you’d like to see here, let us know!
Warm-Ups
Warm-Ups are required to be worn on all podiums at regional, state, and national events. This includes Pacific Northwest Cups, RYCs, SYCs, ROCs, NACs, JOs, and more.
Equipment Lists
At NWFC, we do not ask that our new fencers purchase a complete fencing uniform right away. Instead, we require our athletes to have specific pieces of equipment in order to graduate from one class to the next.
