This Tournament is for beginner fencers who have never competed in a USA Fencing sanctioned tournament.


Each of the events will be preceded by a 30 minute presentation explaining how fencing competitions are organized and run and will be followed by an actual competition with official referees and medals to the top three fencers. This is a great opportunity for new fencers and their families/supporters to learn about and prepare for fencing competition, which is really what all the classes, lessons and sparing at your fencing club has been all about, without the pressure, expense or overwhelming confusion of just jumping into a sanctioned tournament.


We will check for your name on the competitive circuit, if you have done a USA Fencing event already, this tournament is not for you, we will remove your registration.


This tournament is beginner focused so we will still provide equipment if you are missing anything, though we highly recommend to have your own by this point.


Y10 event will use size two blades.

Y12 event will use adult size five blades.

Some flexibility with age is possible depending on the fencer.
