RULES and EQUIPMENT
* All fencers must be members of the United States Fencing Association (USFA). Membership forms will be available at the meet. Membership can also be purchased online at: http://www.usfencing.org/usfa/content/view/2300/156/
* USFA rules will be enforced. With regard to safety, each fencer must wear full fencing clothing, including a plastron (under-arm protector), knickers, and long socks. Masks will be punch-tested for safety at the event.
* We understand that electric equipment can be a difficult issue for youth fencers and their parents, but in order to keep the meet running smoothly, each fencer should have his/her own lame (foil/saber), electric mask (saber), and primary body cord and weapon. USFA rules require each fencer to have a second body cord and a second weapon by the strip; these may be shared amongst teammates/friends, however each fencer should know where his or her secondary equipment is.
* Blade length for Y10 fencers must be 30" or 32" inches long
