United States Fencing Hall of Fame

United States Fencing Hall of Fame

The United States Fencing Hall of Fame (or "U.S. Fencing Association Hall of Fame") is a hall of fame for fencers. Run by the United States Fencing Association (USFA), it is located in the Museum of American Fencing in Shreveport, Louisiana. It was founded as the National Fencing Coaches Association Hall of Fame on February 15, 1963, and was previously located at Helms Sports Hall of Fame, founded in 1936 in Los Angeles, California.

No one was inducted into the Fencing Hall of Fame during the years 1975-1994, due to physical moves and organizational changes, includings its takeover by the Amateur Athletic Foundation.
