The BF board is not normally replaced en masse, so its not a straightforward question to answer.

There are normally two board members retiring by rotation each year. Some get re-elected, some retire, some stand for re-election but lose.

It is complicated by mid-term resignations (for instance DSSabre resigned to take up a post with US Fencing).

Further complications are added by the fact that the funding position changes (for both better and for worse) periodically, resulting in plans being scaled up or down in proportion.

Thanks, Baldric (and again, spider5).

Since the board is rotational, is there a long-term, overarching development master plan along the 16-20 year one discussed (a blueprint, perhaps) in place that can be followed by the various incarnations of the BF board in order to provide continuity to the development of fencers/coaches/referees, etc.?
