WAY E and Un Foil (thus far 16 women & 17 Men)Feb 24, 2018
Excellent opportunity to earn you D or E rating while gaining valuable experience in the process. Both men and women will be separate events unless we fail to meet the requirements for a D rating. $45 3 pm Reg.
This is a USFA sanctioned event and ratings will be awarded for both men and women provided we meet the requirements for a D1 event (15 participants w/ 4 E ratings). Tell your friends to enter this event because we prefer NOT to mix men and women. We are close to meeting the requirements but we need just a few more to be certain.

USFA competitive membership is required with proof of valid membership to be presented at check-in.
Regulation uniform required with long socks, two foils, two body cords and conductive bibs on the mask. Foil springs will be tested.
Come for the fencing stay for the party. After the event stick around for our WAYversary party with refreshments, and dancing into the night. Watch how we convert our fencing studio into a disco with a flip of the switch. It's the WAY to party. Join us, you're invited.

Way of the Sword is CT largest sanctioned fencing club with nine grounded 17-meter Olympic strips tightly maintained. Ample free parking directly in front of the club. Fully ADA compliant facility. Changing rooms are found on the lower level. Keep all fencing bags down below. Only strip bags are permitted on the fencing floor. We have a clear floor policy here for a no trip hazard environment. Blade racks are to be used to secure weapons when not in use while masks can be stored on benches provided.
Please honor our "leave no trace" policy by cleaning up after yourself and ensuring that you take only what is yours out of the club. It is our expectation that you will leave our club clean and in the pristine condition in which you found it.
