AFM Youth Epee Cup for Y8/Y10/Y12/Y14/Cadet epee fencers. This is event #1 in the series of several tournaments. At the conclusion of the series at the end of the season, a trophy will be awarded for each category based on the overall performance in the series.


These events are perfect events for not-so-experienced fencers as they will run in a friendly and supportive environment.


Please note that the event start times are tentative and might be adjusted two days before the competition based on the actual number of participants.


Also, if there are not enough participants in any event (less than 6), we will combine the same-age events to give the fencers a more adequate competitive experience.


Medals will be awarded to the top 4 fencers in each event - one Gold, one Silver and Two Bronze medals.


This is the first of five tournaments we plan to run during the season. Based on the overall performance of the fencers in all events, we will award a trophy to the winners in each category. The trophy will be awarded in the last tournament of the season. The points from each individual competition will be based on that competition's final placement and on the number of competitors, with 1st place getting 100 points.


For example, if there were 25 participants in the event, then 1st place would receive 100 points, 2nd place would receive 96 points, etc.


Points from all series tournaments will be added to determine the winners in each age/gender category.


Payment should be processed by askFred to register. Unpaid entries will be counted as walk-ins, and walk-in fees will be charged (in cash or check only).


Registration fees are $10. Event fees are $60 per event. Walk-in fees are $100 per event. Walk-ins will be admitted only at the discretion of the bout committee based on the available capacity.


Refunds: Withdrawal and refund requests should be emailed two weeks before the event. After that, refunds will not be processed, regardless of the reason.


Fees are refunded $50 per event. Registration fees are not refundable.
