Richmond Fencing Club: Richmond, VA
Referee Seminar & Hands-On priority clinic with Matt Cox. Cost is $75 for full-day session. Session will include the FOC rules seminar, demonstration and discussion of current Foil and Sabre priority. Starts at promptly 9AM!
This seminar fulfills the official FOC seminar requirement; participants will be cleared to take both the written and practical referee exams.
The material will be delivered in what Matt calls a "lab environment". Participants will not only learn the rules and conventions of fencing, but gain hands-on experience interpreting and discussing live action demonstrations.
Discussion of the rules will be informed by Matt's experiences refereeing, coaching, and fencing at all levels of the sport. Not just for aspiring referees, this seminar will be helpful for athletes, coaches, and parents who want to learn the finer details of refereeing and how they impact the game.
