Houston Sword Sports Brash Invitational

The Houston Sword Sports Brash Invitational is a three-weapon tournament to be held at the Brash Brewery in Houston, TX. Events Scheduled: Senior Mixed 21 & Over Epee Senior Mixed 21 & Over Foil Senior Mixed 21 & Over Saber Registration fee: $20 Event fee: $15 FENCERS: Foil and saber are currently capped at 16 participants, and epee is capped at 24. You may enter as many events as you like. All fencers must be at least 21 years old. FREE BEER: The Brash Brewery does not offer tastings, so unlike the Bruno and the Railean, you will get one full-sized beer for each event you enter. You will have to wait until you are eliminated from all events before you can begin to partake, though. GUESTS: Non-fencing guests can buy the beer of their choice directly from the bar. The venue will be open to the public all day, so it’s a chance for us to show off our skills to an outside audience! There will also be food trucks to help you maintain energy and (later) absorb alcohol. PRIZES: First place in each event wins three crowlers (growler-sized cans) of their choice of beer, second place wins two, and third place finishers win one. The best overall three-weapon result also wins three crowlers. VENUE: Brash Brewery is a large warehouse with a taproom on one end and beer-making on the other. We’ll be in the middle. The brewery is not air-conditioned but is protected from sun and rain. UNSANCTIONED: Due to the age restrictions, this will not be a sanctioned US Fencing event and no letter classifications will be awarded. Preregistration opens on 03/07/2016. Preregistration closes on 04/28/2016.
