Rising Stars Beginner Youth Series

FRED Announces the Rising Stars Beginner Youth Series These tournaments are for absolute beginner fencers to teach parent how to help their athletes, and let the athletes get used to competition. If you have competed in an RYC, SYC, etc., this is not for you. ------------------ Important Info: ------------------- Tournament: Rising Stars Beginner Youth Series #4 Date(s): 04/27/2019 Location: Fencing Institute of Texas, Inc. 1000 West Crosby Road, Suite 134 Carrollton, Texas 75006 (972) 242-0399 Fees: $10 Registration $10 per event Event | Date | Registration Closes Unrated Y10 Mixed Foil | Sat 4/27| 9:00 AM Unrated Y10 Mixed Saber | Sat 4/27| 9:00 AM Unrated Y12 & Y14 Mixed Saber | Sat 4/27| 11:30 AM Unrated Y12 & Y14 Mixed Epee | Sat 4/27| 12:00 PM Unrated Y12 & Y14 Mixed Foil | Sat 4/27| 12:00 PM We will separate age groups if possible (meaning, if there are at least 5 fencers in each age group). If there are at least 5 girls and 5 boys, we will separate the event by gender. Medals will be given to the top 4 boys and top 4 girls in each event. This is part of a series of beginner youth tournaments meant to be used to teach athletes and PARENTS about the format for tournaments and how to help your fencers be successful. Future date is May 11. Fencers must be competitive members of the USFA and have a properly signed North Texas Division waiver (attached) to participate. All events will be fenced using electric equipment. There is a limited availability of equipment at FIT; fencers are allowed to share equipment as this is a BEGINNER tournament. These tournaments are intended to be a child's first introduction to a fencing tournament environment, and are meant to prepare athletes for participation in the Regional Youth Circuit (RYC) and Super Youth Circuit (SYC) events. They are also a training ground for PARENTS and REFEREES. Parents are expected to ask questions throughout the tournament so you will be better prepared to help your child at a larger event. Beginning referees are welcome! Students, this is a great way to earn community service for school!
