Senior Circuit #6

Dedicated to the memory of Sam Senior, the Senior Circuit, despite its name, is a new 'D' and under tournament program for the 2008-2009 season. With the initial four tournaments in the first series completed, it's time for the second series (Circuits #5-8) to begin! Registration closes at 7:00pm-ish for these Thursday night events. Tournament cost is 10.00. *Current USFA membership is required for all fencers and can be purchased or renewed at the door.* The Senior Circuit tournaments will be held in 2 series. The first series will end at Senior Circuit #4 and will be based on points earned in Senior Circuits #1-4. This first series will be entirely foil. The second series will end at Senior Circuit #8 and will be based on Senior Circuits #5-8. The second series will be exclusively epee. Trophies will be awarded to the top 3 points earners in each series, respectively. Here's how it works: 1) Everyone who participates in an event will earn points for that event. The number of participants equals the number of points. So, 20 fencers equals...you guessed it, 20 points. The winner would receive all 20 points, while the 20th fencer would earn 1 point. 2) Events are open to all fencers who have a D or lower rating. USFA membership, full fencing gear (we can provide equipment but that's based on a first come/serve basis), and being 13 years of age by January 1st of the 2008-09 season or higher are the requirements. Events will be gender mixed. 3) Overall points standings will be based on points earned in the best 3 out of 4 Senior Circuit tournaments. Trophies will be given out at the last tournament of each series. If fencers, for whatever reason, cannot attend, prizes will be held for them at the center. Events Scheduled: D & Under Mixed Epee Preregistration opens on 02/01/2009. Preregistration closes on 02/11/2009.
