These events are meant to be learning and practice events for fencers to give them competition experience before moving to larger, high-level tournaments. In addition, we use these events to start training young referees in what SHOULD BE a safe environment for fencers and referees. MISTAKES WILL BE MADE. Coaches and parents, chill. These are practice events for both fencers and new young referees. There is nothing at stake here except experience, good and bad.


If you bring siblings to the event, please keep them with you and not let them run around the club.
