Please check/update your membership with USA Fencing and your askFRED profile to correctly reflect your membership status.
Fencers who do not have a USA Fencing membership will be asked to complete a membership/payment at the tournament. This could considerable delay the start time for your event and we therefore, ask the fencers to please do this prior to Saturday morning.
