GBR MAJOR EVENTS – GBR LOGOS AND PATCHES

This page is intended to provide instructions around the use of GBR logos and patches for all GB Major Events (these are all the major championships)

Last updated: 12th December 2025 – this page is currently being updated.

It is your responsibility to ensure your kit has the correct logos/patches and your equipment meets FIE standards.

Please note that the Olympic and European Games is not covered by this advice. The requirements around kit, logos, tracksuits etc will all fall under the jurisdiction of the TeamGB who in turn are bound by the IOC rules.

A summary of the requirements/expectations in relation to the GBR patch 

As part of the Leon Paul sponsorship agreement, all competing athletes are required to display a Leon Paul logo.

Foil and Épée: The logo patch must be sewn onto the back arm, ideally positioned above the GBR logo. Please note that no additional logos of any kind are permitted on the breeches other than the GBR national logo.

Sabre: The logo may be placed either at the top of the thigh on the non-sword side of the fencing breeches (ensuring it is clearly separate from the national logo) or on the back of the lame. Sabreurs can have their lames printed directly by Leon Paul at any event where a Leon Paul printing service is available or at the Leon Paul shop.

Alternatively, you can contact [email protected] to request patches for sewing onto your lame jacket (please specify the type of lame, e.g., lightweight).
