3 Weapon RFC ChallengeFeb 21, 2015
This event is for competitive development of young athletes that are ages 8-14 years old. Some fencers in the epee event are older then 14. Many of our fencers are non-rated.
This event is for sabre, foil and epee fencers who are looking for competitive experience. Non-RFC fencers are always welcome! Please note that registration CLOSES at 1:30pm.
FORMAT: One or two rounds of pools (depending on number of participants,) followed by direct elimination rounds - 10-touch bouts/ two 2-minute periods; fence-off for every place (depending on numbers)– 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 through the season.
