Gary Copeland named to the USA Fencing Hall of Fame Class of 2027. He will be inducted at the 2027 Summer Nationals.
We are celebrating our Founder and Head Coach, Gary Copeland, who has been honored for a lifetime of building champions on the strip. From all of us at NCF Boulder, congratulations, Gary - this one belongs to four decades of fencers who learned the sport in your room.
The Hall of Fame Class of 2027 is the headline of this honor: fencing's national community recognizing a coaching career that has shaped the sport for generations.
And the proof is in the record: 46 individual national champions over a 47-year career, and Gary is on the strip with our fencers every single practice.

Congratulations to USA Fencing on the Class of 2027!

By May 15, the bundle is gone. The camps still run, but a thousand dollars in bonuses come off the table.
NCF Boulder runs nine weeks of half-day epee camps from May 26 through August 7. Ages 7 to 13. Twelve kids per week, hard cap. One coach for every five kids. Led by NCF Boulder's coaching staff including a USOC Fencing Coach of the Year. Same floor where our state champions train.
A single week is $323. Two weeks is $646 and adds a private lesson and a Champion Camper tee. Four weeks is the Summer Pass at $1,292: two private lessons, a Fencing 101 parent session, $250 toward fall club membership, plus one free local tournament entry so your fencer ends the summer with a real ranked result, not just a participation photo.
That bundle goes away May 15. After May 15 the base price still holds. The private lessons, the membership credit, the tournament entry, the tee, and the Fencing 101 parent session do not.
Every camp ends Friday with a real bracketed tournament: pools, refs, medals, a one-page coach note on what to work on next. Every kid leaves with a ranked result.
If your fencer doesn't want to come back after Day 1, tell us by 1 PM that day and we refund the whole week. No questions.
