The sum of that fencer’s 4 best results across all 2018-2019 Cup events (if they compete in 4 or fewer events, all of the fencer’s results will count).  2. Points awarded to fencers at each event will depend on their finish and the number and letter rating of other participants in the event as follows: a. Each participating fencer will be assigned a value based on their rating (U=2, E=3, D=4, C=5, B=6, A=7)  b. Each fencer will earns the number of points equal to the total value of all the fencers who finish below them, plus 2 points. c. In the case of Vet Mixed Events, MS will earn points for all MS finishers below them; WS will earn points for all fencers (MS or WS) that finish below them. 2018-2019 Tri-State Veteran Saber Cup Events (as of August 20, 2018): September 30 - Lilov Fencing Academy (Cedar Grove, NJ) -   https://askfred.net/Events/moreInfo.php?tournament_id=41191 November 1H / October 2H - Location TBC January 1 -  Tim Morehouse Fencing Center (Port Chester, NY) -  https://askfred.net/Events/moreInfo.phptournament_id=41180   January 27 - Manhattan Fencing Center (Manhattan, NY) - AskFred details to come March 10 - Sheridan Fencing Center (Manhattan or Westchester, NY  - AskFred details to come  June 16 -  Infinity Fencing Alliance (Woolwich Township, NJ) -   https://askfred.net/Events/moreInfo.php?tournament_id=41218 ----------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- Infinity Fencing Alliance is a 3,300 sq ft facility with wooden floors, 7 FIE size regulation strips with state-of-the-art VSM computerized scoring machines and free Wifi.
