OTHER INFORMATION

NO LATE ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED. Please do not waste your time and mine by asking to register after the stated deadline.

PLEASE NOTE: If you earn a classification higher than a D before this event and you are already registered you may still fence. Earning a higher classification after registration does not make you ineligible to compete in this event.

Event times may change depending on entries.

When men's and women's events are to start at the same time or within 30 minutes of each other, the meets may be combined at the discretion of the meet managers if either event has fewer than six entries.

Events will be mixed if fewer than 6 preregistered competitors and cancelled if fewer than six when mixed. If Saturday women's events do not reach 6 and there is room to add to men's events to create a mixed event, you will be notified. Also, if Sat women's event entry numbers allow for both foil and epee to start at the same time, the 3:00 pm event will move to 2:00 pm.

You may fence in only one individual event event per day scheduled for the same time. If you register for two events on the same day, you MUST present yourself at the appropriate strip when called or withdraw. We will not hold up an event if you are still fencing in another event.
