How fencers are ranked and selected for GBR representation
Fencers are ranked by category (Cadet, Junior and Senior), weapon (foil, epee or sabre) and gender.
Rankings are calculated from ranking points earned in competitions attended by the fencers. The amount of points earned depends on the strength of the competition as well as how well the fencer did.
