FRED Announces the RCFC Youth #3

Join us for our next youth tournament! There will be foil events for all age groups, plus Y14 Epee. There is also a Y14 Novice Foil event, for fencers who have fenced two tournaments or fewer.

------------------ Important Info: -------------------

Tournament: RCFC Youth #3
Date(s): 04/04/2015
Location: Rain City Fencing Center

Event Schedule:

Saturday, April 4th, 2015
9:30 AM - Doors open
10:00 AM - Y10, Y14 Foil
1:00 PM - Y8 Foil, Y14 Epee, Y14 Novice Foil
2:00 PM - Y12 Foil

All times are close of registration.

Entry fee is $15 including tax per event.

Except for the Youth-8 event, all competitors must be current 2014-2015 competitive members of USA Fencing (or equivalent). You may join USA Fencing or renew your membership for the new season at the tournament, or online at http://www.usfencing.org/ (please print your membership card and bring it to the tournament).

The Y14 Novice event is for fencers who have never fenced a tournament before, or have only fenced one of our Novice events previously. Fencers will need to upgrade their USA Fencing membership to the Competitive version.

All competitors must have full regulation uniform including underarm protector, fencing pants, and long socks. Rain City Fencing Center has limited quantities of equipment available for purchase or rental.

Fencers may rent club electric gear for $15 per tournament (or $25 per month). Bear in mind that club gear is often unreliable for competition. Whether you're using club gear or your own, make sure it's in good working order and your weapons will pass the weight test! Also, all fencers should have two working weapons and two working body cords at the strip with them. Fencers in the Y8 and Y10 foil events must use #2 or shorter blades.

All foil fencers at all competition levels must have masks with conductive bibs. RCFC has electric foil masks, mask cords, and retrofit kits for BG "Olympic" masks available for sale, but rental of electric masks is VERY limited.

Epee fencers note: Because a conductive surface can cause an opponent's weapon to ground out, electric foil masks are NOT permitted in the epee event. Two-weapon fencers will need two masks or a mask with an exchangeable bib.
