what are the fencing rules ?
Penalty cards or flags are also used in modern fencing. Each card has a unique meaning. A fencer who receives a yellow card is warned, but no further action is taken. A fencer who receives a red card is warned, and their opponent receives a touch. A fencer who receives a black card is disqualified from the competition and may be disqualified from the tournament, expelled from the venue, or suspended from future tournaments if the offence is serious. However, black cards are rarely given to fencers. It should be noted that spectators can (and occasionally are) carded or expelled.
