Late Fee Entry Deadline (after 1/3/2020) = $35 (registration fee) + $15 per event ---------------------------------------------------------- How Does it Work? The Music City Series is comprised of three separate tournaments spread throughout the season, each with their own Champion and Finalists. Competitors earn cumulative points based on a weighted point formula. Consistency is key! A fencer who wins one tournament, but only makes the top 8 in the other tournaments can easily be passed over by a fencer who has consistently finished in the top 4 at each tournament. This is just one example, but there are many other possible scenarios. A fencer who consistently medals, but misses a tournament could lose his top spot on the points list. Adversely, a fencer can miss one tournament or finish poorly, then finish near the top in each remaining tournament, including the Grand Finale, and could earn enough points to become the Overall Series Champion! Each tournament brings a unique element of excitement, not only to see who wins, but to see who will end up at the top of the rolling points list! The Prizes Our Grand Prizes are brand new electric guitars engraved with a placard denoting the championship event and date, along with a guitar strap, stand and wall mount worth several hundred dollars each! The Overall Series Champion will also have their name and club affiliation engraved on our perpetual silver trophy cup which is on continuous display! Medals will be given to top-8 finalists in each of the four tournaments, in all events. Separate medals will be awarded to the top 3 female fencers who finish in each event. Custom Gold, Silver, and Bronze framed records will be awarded to top 3 places in each Open Mixed Event.
