Fees payable are determined by the day you pay, not the
day you sign up on FRED. Only registrations paid in full are considered
complete. Signing up via FRED with no payment makes you a pending registrant
and not officially registered. To pay by check or for questions about payment,
contact the division at phildivfencing@gmail.com, or phone 215-450-7546.
All fencers must present proof of current USFA and
Philadelphia Division membership at check-in (membership card printed out or
stored as a picture on your phone). Fencers whose date of birth is not verified
(see your membership card) may bring proof of age (birth certificate, driver's
license, passport) to check-in, and that information will be forwarded to the
National Office.
All fencers must have the necessary equipment in
conformance with USFA rules and in good condition. Equipment will not be
supplied by the host or the Division. Chest protectors used by foil fencers
must be covered in soft material and must be worn below the plastron. All sabre
gloves must meet the 800 NM standard.
Fencers who are prevented from competing in the various
qualifying events due to illness or injury will be able to petition for entry
to the National Championships. Petitions are handled by the National Office,
not the Division.
