Referee Seminar by Patrick Webster


This seminar is for individuals wanting to learn more about becoming a Certified Fencing Referee, learning more about the sport of fencing and its rules or just anyone curious about what the role of a referee is and how we apply the rules in the context of the actions throughout the bout.


For those interested in becoming a certified referee of the sport of fencing with USA Fencing, this clinic meets the minimum standards required for a certification seminar.


This seminar is divided into two half sessions. If, for any reason, you can not make both sessions, please let me know and the next time there is a two-session format we can work to get you seated for the half you couldn’t make this time.


Dates and Times:


First Half (Session 1) Tuesday February 25, 2025 6:00PM to 10:00PM ET

Second Half (Session 2) Thursday February 27, 2025 6:00PM to 10:00PM ET


Location:    Online only via Zoom


Fee: $60.00 per person via Venmo or Paypal only


(For members of the Michigan Division, there has been a program historically where once you complete the required steps for becoming a certified fencing referee, once you work your first event, by contacting the Michigan Division officers you could be reimbursed the cost of the seminar and exams. Contact the officers through the following link to confirm eligibility - https://www.midivfencing.com/ . If you are not a member of the Michigan Division, contact your own division as many offer a similar program.)


Registration Process: The following is the link for registration. Please use AskFred to register for this seminar. As individuals register a notification will go out for registration fees which registrants can use either Paypal or Venmo to pay. The day prior to the first session Zoom links will be sent out to those properly registered along with any additional information needed for the seminar.
