Grand Round-Robin Epee at CFC

Come fence EVERYONE in a Grand Round-Robin Epee tournament! Concord Fencing Club is pleased to host this unusual and challenging event for the first time. The event is organized as a complete round robin, which means that each competitor fences a five-touch bout against every other person in the event. With capacity for up to 42 fencers, that’s a lot of fencing, and a lot of fun! We will follow the NCAA formula: 1) Fencers are assigned to 'squads' of three members each to organize the round-robin activity. After an internal, mini round-robin, each squad is matched against every other squad in turn. 2) Upon conclusion of the Round-Robin, DEs will be held for the top four places. Remaining places will be decided based on Round-Robin results (Victories, indicators, etc.). Note: If the full capacity of 42 fencers is reached, we expect that this event will require approximately 9 hours to complete (9AM – 6PM). This is a rough estimate only; please plan accordingly. …. Entry fee: $30 if prepaid via FRED Referees fee: (None – self-directed) Walk-in registration: Add $10 Registration is capped at 42 fencers.
