Did you know that the Conseil International du Sport Militaire (CISM) was established in 1948 following World War II, and fencing was the first sport to participate? One of the goals of CISM is to use sport for deconfliction & peace building between countries by promoting 'friendship through sport'." - Canadian Fencing Federation
