UPDATED USFA RYC RULES:
1) The Y10 and Y12 events at SN this season will be National Championships. The Y10 path remains participation in an RYC = qualification. For Y12, the RYC path is the top 50% of the fencers on their Regions point standings will qualify. Foreign Fencers will be skipped and the next eligible fencer will qualify as these events are now National Championships. The SYC/NAC NRPS points path remains the same.
3) The winner of a Y14 RYC will NO longer earn automatic qualification to SNs. Rather, at the end of the season, the top 25% on each region's list will qualify. The SYC/NAC NRPS path remains the same and the division qualifiers for Y14 are still in place.
Events will be mixed if there are fewer than 5 fencers in any gender for that age/weapon.
Please note: The times listed for the above events are the close of registration. Please arrive in enough time to warm up and check equipment and be ready to fence at close of registration.
