There will be a foil & sabre tournament every month at the Rochester Fencing Club during the 2011-2012 season. Entry fee is $20. Intended for unrated fencers with one or more years of experience, e.g. RFC Level 1 & Level 2.
One or two rounds of pools (depending on number of participants) followed by direct elimination rounds. Bouts in the direct elimination round are 8 touchs with two 2-minute periods. Fence off for every place. A LOT OF FENCING!
Points for placing in these events will be awarded as follows:
1st place = 15 points
2nd place = 14 points
3rd place = 13 points
etc.
(If there are fewer than 16 participants, subtract 5 points for each place.)
You can earn prizes and galaxy-wide bragging rights by compiling big point totals.
