Tournament Rules
Some of the items mentioned below may seem obvious, but since we are dealing with kids at a public venue, safety is utmost.
All fencers will be required to:
- be current Members of the CFF/BCFA or USFA
- wear a fencing jacket, plastron or chest protector, mask and glove in good condition
- wear sweats or track pants if they don't have knickers, but no baggy jeans or shorts allowed
- wear decent, well fitting NON-MARKING runners
- wear proper-sized, tucked-in t-shirts to insure that there isn't any skin showing between jacket edges and pants
- use well-maintained weapons in good operating condition
WE WILL BE PERFORMING WEAPONS CHECKS, so everyone test your gear beforehand!
Fencing Equipment
If kids have their own basic gear or can borrow some from their club, that's great.
We will have some basic equipment available to borrow: masks, jackets, chest protectors, plastrons and gloves
If kids do not have their own equipment we can lend gear for their use during the day, but there is no guarantee that they won't have to share sweaty stuff between them.
Electrical gear is always an issue, so anything that can be brought from other clubs will be great.
We will have some electrical gear available to borrow: foils, body-wires and lames.
There will be a refundable deposit of $5 per piece of electrical gear that is borrowed.
Referees
Referees are always in short supply, so anyone that can help out during the day will be greatly appreciated.
All referees will get a complimentary lunch and will be paid $15 per event that they adjudicate.
