Venue: Lone Star Fencing center - Plano 915 W. Parker Road, STE. 311 Plano, TX 75023 Hotel: TBD Fees: $30 Registration fee (per fencer), plus $25 per event fenced. A $50 late fee will be charged for on-site registration. US Fencing membership required (may sign up at the tournament). Full fencing uniform will be required. Y10 events must use #2 blades. UPDATED USFA Y 10/12/14 RYC RULES: 1) For Y10 and Y12, any fencer competing in an RYC with at least 2 fencers in their event, will continue to meet the qualification standard for the March NAC. However, any RYC held before the March NAC but AFTER the deadline for entry will NOT be considered for qualification to this tournament. 2) The Y10 and Y12 events at SN this season will be National Championships. The Y10 path remains participation in an RYC = qualification. For Y12, the RYC path is the top 50% of the fencers on their Regions point standings will qualify. Foreign Fencers will be skipped and the next eligible fencer will qualify as these events are now National Championships. The SYC/NAC NRPS points path remains the same. 3) The winner of a Y14 RYC will NO longer earn automatic qualification to SNs. Rather, at the end of the season, the top 25% on each region's list will qualify. The SYC/NAC NRPS path remains the same and the division qualifiers for Y14 are still in place. Events will be mixed if there are fewer than 5 fencers in any gender for that age/weapon.
