CenCal Junior Olympics Qualifiers 2022

JO's qualifier for Cadet and Junior fencers belonging to the Central California Division. If want to fence at the JO's in February but do not have sufficient sufficient national or regional points - come and fence to qualify! -------- Event Schedule --------- Sunday, December 18, 2022 Doors open at 7:00 AM Schedule: (May be subject to change) Junior Men's Foil - 8:00AM Junior Men's Epee - 8:00AM Junior Men's Saber - 12:00PM Junior Women's Foil - 11:00AM Junior Women's Epee - 8:00AM Junior Women's Saber - 10:30AM Cadet Men's Foil - 1:30PM Cadet Men's Epee - 1:30PM Cadet Men's Saber - 1:00PM Cadet Women's Foil - 3:00PM Cadet Women's Epee - 1:30PM Cadet Women's Saber - 1:00PM All times listed are close of registration. The start of cadet events may be slightly delayed if some fencers are still competing in the junior events. All times are also subject to change based on the actual number of preregistrations. Please pay attention to the scheduling changes notifications. In each event, the top 25% (rounded up) will qualify for JOs, with a minimum of 3. If 3 or fewer fencers show up for an event, the event will not be fenced and all will qualify. Since this event qualifies based on number of people there will be a fence off for the last qualifying place if two people finish at that place. Fencers that earn qualification at the Junior events will automatically for the corresponding Cadet event (if age-eligible.) -------- Registration Information --------- Entry fees: registration fee is $15 plus $45 per event entered. Fees will NOT be refunded if an event is not fenced because everyone automatically qualifies. Payment: Please prepay on AskFRED All fees are tripled at the door if a fencer did not preregister. Fencers that wish to qualify for both Junior and Cadet should register and pay for both events. If you qualify for Junior and therefore do not need to fence the Cadet event, we will refund your Cadet event entry fee. -------- Tournament Rules -------- Check this page for age eligibility requirements. https://www.usafencing.org/age-classification-eligibility Since this is a national qualifier, all competitors must be current members of the USFA Central California Division and US citizens or permanent residents.
