Sbârcia joined the Romanian national team in 2012 after Simona Gherman, Loredana Dinu, and Anca Măroiu took a post-Olympic break. Together with Maria Udrea, Simona Pop, and captain Ana Maria Brânză, she won a bronze medal in the Leipzig, Saint-Maur, and Rio stages of the team World Cup. She was replaced by Amalia Tătăran for the European Championships in Zagreb, but was selected again for the World Championships in Budapest. In the individual event, she was defeated by a single hit in the first round by Poland's Renata Knapik. In the team event, Romania reached easily the quarter-finals, where they defeated South Korea, before being crushed by Russia in the semi-finals. They prevailed over France in the small final and came away with the bronze medal.
