Historia (swe)

SAF arrangerar varje år sedan 1970-talet en internationell stortävling i värjfäktning, kallad SAF-pokalen. Initiativet till tävlingen togs av SAFs dåvarande legendariske fäktmästare Orwar Lindwall. År 2002 beslutade SAF, uppbackad av föreningens nye kassör Robert Rehbinder, att inrätta även en damklass, som tävlar om ”Rehbinderska Priset”.

Tävlingen har numera status som World Cup Satellite-tävling, som övervakas av FIE, det internationella fäktförbundet. Arrangemanget genomförs i samarbete med Stockholms Fäktförbund och Svenska Fäktförbundet. Tävlingen är öppen för alla fäktare med internationell licens och brukar locka totalt cirka 250 fäktare från cirka 25 nationer. Stora delar av eliten från norra Europa brukar delta i tävlingen.

Tidigare hölls tävlingen under januari eller februari, men sedan 2018 i september.
