You may already know by now that the International Olympic Committee has decided to postpone the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games to be held in its new schedule starting on July 23, 2021 until August 8, 2021. The IOC together with all stakeholders and the Japanese organizers are working to ensure the success of the Games next year, barring of course the threat of the current COVID-19 pandemic.

In this connection, the International Fencing Federation will also have to re-study its new calendar leading to the Games in 2021, to include the various Olympic Qualifying events and other relevant international competitions. As soon as the situation will permit, the FIE and the FCA will announce any decision with regards our future calendar of events.
