All events are for fencers born in 2005 or earlier. Open events are for all classifications. D & Under events are for fencers classified "D" or under in the weapon they're fencing. All teams may be men, women, or mixed, and may consist of 3 team members plus an optional alternate. If you don't have a team to fence on, show up anyway. We'll set you up with one. All competitors must be current (2018-2019) competitive members of USA Fencing. Please join or renew your membership online at https://member.usafencing.org/. Foreign fencers must sign up for a free Foreign Fencer membership through USA Fencing. All fencers must have full regulation uniform, including underarm protector, fencing pants, and long socks. RCFC has these items available for purchase if necessary. All foil fencers at all competition levels must have masks with conductive bibs. RCFC has electric foil masks, mask cords, and retrofit kits for BG "Olympic" masks available for purchase. Epee fencers note: Because a conductive surface can cause an opponent's weapon to ground out, electric foil masks are NOT permitted in the epee event. Two-weapon fencers will need two masks or a mask with an exchangeable bib. Foil fencers who wear a hard plastic chest protector must use the new FIE-approved padded protector. We expect to have a limited quantity of the new protectors available for sale. Chest protectors are still required for female fencers, optional for male fencers in all three weapons. The entry fee is $60 per team. There will be medals and prizes for the top 3 teams in each event. ------------------ To Preregister: ------------------ https://askfred.net/Events/Prereg/prereg.php?tournament_id=41428 Preregistration closes on 11/02/2018 If your email program didn't make that URL clickable, copy and paste the whole URL into your web browser.
