Before modern technology during non-electric fencing competitions, fencers would often yell as a way to attract the attention of the referee. This was a way to persuade the judge to give the point to the yelling fencer. As time went on and technology improved, some of the theatrics continued to remain effective.
The P-yellow (warning) and P-red (penalty hit) cards received during any one bout or match are valid only for that bout or match. These penalties are not transferable to the following bout or match.
There are three different weapons used in fencing: Epee, Foil and Sabre. All weapons in general, are based off of the same basic set of rules making it relatively easy to switch between epee, foil and sabre.
Scoring in fencing Lights - A red or green light means that a hit has landed on a valid target area. The light on the side of the fencers who scored the hit lights up, and the referee then awards the hit. In foil and saber, when both red and green lights flash, the referee decides who had the right of way.
Color (red or green) means a touch by a fencer in a valid target area. Side matters! In epA©e, that means any touch anywhere. When both lights go off in A©pA©e, they both get the point! In foil and sabre, it's only on a touch made on a lame (foil/sabre), or mask (sabre only).
There are 3 lights on the fencing machine: red, green, and yellow (white). That last light is usually yellow, but on some types of machines, it looks white instead. Color (red or green) means a touch by a fencer in a valid target area. Side matters! In epA©e, that means any touch anywhere.
Penalties. Modern fencing also includes the addition of penalty cards or flags. Each card has a different meaning. A fencer penalized with a yellow card is warned, but no other action is taken. A fencer penalized with a red card is warned, and a touch is awarded to their opponent.
On the machine itself, the lights are always on the same side. The red is going to be on the left and the green is going to be on the right. This doesn't change ever! It doesn't matter which fencer is on which side, because the fencing scoring lights will always be red on the left and green on the right.
Each touch is worth one point. A bout is a maximum of nine minutes long, divided into three periods of three minutes (with a one-minute break between periods). If the third period is completed before either fencer reaches 15 points, the fencer with the most points is declared the winner.
