Score bouts.
Coach smarter.
A professional fencing app for referees and coaches. Manage pools, score direct elimination bouts, run team relays, and unlock deep coaching analytics — all from your iPhone.
Everything a referee needs.
The base app supports all three weapons across every major competition format, built around the FIE 2025 rule set. One purchase, no recurring cost.
All Three Weapons
Épée, foil, and sabre with weapon-specific rule presets built around the FIE 2025 framework — including sabre break at 8, épée simultaneous touch handling, and foil priority.
Pool Management
Run round-robin pools for 3–9 fencers with standard bout order. Automatic standings calculation with V/M ratio, indicator, and touches scored.
Direct Elimination
Full DE bout scoring to 15 with multi-period support, one-minute rest breaks, priority assignment, and deciding extra minute. Includes veteran (10-touch) format.
Team Relay
9-leg relay to 45 with proper leg assignments, relay-specific score thresholds, and overshoot handling.
Dual Meet (NCAA)
Full 27-bout NCAA dual meet format with team scoring, weapon-by-weapon tracking, and meet-level standings.
Bout Timer & P-Clock
Integrated bout clock with tap-to-pause, period management, and non-combativity (passivity) clock with P-card escalation from P-Yellow through P-Black.
Penalty Cards
Yellow, red, and black cards with automatic point deduction on red cards. Full P-card progression for non-combativity.
Medical Timeouts
5-minute medical timeout tracking with withdrawal handling.
Bout Analytics
Post-bout breakdown including momentum chart, score timeline, bout flow visualization, lead changes, average time per touch, and largest lead.
PDF Export

Pool Statistics
Per-fencer stats including touches scored, touches received, average seconds per touch and per hit, plus radar chart profiles comparing fencer strengths.

scoreboard can’t tell you.
Coaching Pro adds live touch tagging and deep analytics. Tag each touch with who initiated, the action type, strip position, and tempo — then review archetype profiles, single-light percentages, and exportable scouting reports.
Offensive. Defensive. Counter-offensive. Swarming.
The app classifies each fencer’s style based on tagged touches into four archetypes. Track how a fencer’s profile evolves across bouts and export the data as a PDF scouting report.
Built for the salle.
Unlock these features with a Coaching Pro subscription.
Live Touch Tagging
Tag each touch in real time with who initiated, who received, and whether the attack was in preparation. Quick Capture mode for speed; Detailed mode for full action coding.
Strip Position Heatmap
Track where on the strip each touch lands — from 2M Left to 2M Right, with Left/Center/Right lateral zones. See patterns in positioning across an entire session.
Action Type Breakdown
Categorize touches by action: flèche, lunge, toe touch, remise, counter, flick, and more. See which actions score most for each fencer.
Tempo & AIP Analysis
Track tempo (1st, 2nd, 3rd intention) and Attack-in-Preparation rate. Know how often a fencer scores on preparation attacks versus initiated actions.
Single Light Percentage
See what percentage of attacks and defenses score as single lights — a measure of clean touch quality in each phase.
Fencer Roster & Scouting Reports
Maintain a roster of fencers with photos, club, nationality, and historical analytics. Export individual PDF scouting reports.
Full Para Fencing Support
Fencing Manager supports World Para Fencing (WPF) rules out of the box. Toggle Para Fencing mode in Settings to enable the WPF shot clock, wheelchair-specific penalties (t.22–t.36), disability-related breaks, medical timeouts, wheelchair damage handling, and Category A/B/C classification tracking.
One app. Two tiers.
The base app is a one-time purchase. Coaching Pro is an optional subscription for coaches who want live tagging and analytics.
