What is the term used to describe a fencing match's official conclusion?

The term used to describe the official conclusion of a fencing match is "bout completion." This terminology is consistent with the language used in fencing rules and regulations, where a "bout" refers to the actual fencing match between two competitors. The bout is officially completed when the pre-determined number of touches is reached or the time limit expires, signaling that the match has concluded. This clarity in terminology is important for both competitors and referees to ensure a mutual understanding of when the match has ended, enabling accurate scoring and documentation of results.

In the context of fencing, the other terms do not accurately represent this conclusion. "Match end" and "final score" may imply the result but do not encompass the formalities of how a bout reaches completion. "Endgame" is generally associated with strategy and final moves in various games, such as chess, rather than specific fencing terminology.
