The Ivy League Fencing Championships (officially, the Ivy League Fencing Round-Robins) is an annual tournament to determine the Ivy League standings in men's and women's fencing. Unlike at the NCAA Fencing Championships, the men's and women's events are contested separately.
Then men's Ivy League Round-Robin has existed since 1956; the women's since 1982. Currently, five teams compete in the men's tournament, as Brown, Cornell and Dartmouth do not sponsor NCAA men's fencing teams. Brown and Cornell had previously participated, but their men's NCAA team were cut after the 2020 and 1993 seasons, respectively. The women's competition features seven teams, with every Ivy League school with the exception of Dartmouth sponsoring a team.
