Welcome to the website of the Manitoba Fencing Association, home of the Manitoba Golden Blades provincial fencing team. The MFA consists of five fencing clubs in Winnipeg, each specializing in one or more of the three weapons of foil, epee and sabre. This website has been recently redesigned, and we are currently in the process of populating our new pages. Please bear with us while we grow our site.
