Fencing Tournaments:
NOTE: We intend to make this a sanctioned event but reserve the right to make it non-sanctioned if we run into complications in doing so.
Here is what we are doing to keep this safe, and sustainable.
-If you are sick or have any symtoms of sickness alert us and then stay home. We'll refund you in full.
-18 fencer limit per event (well under our 25% capacity). We have nine ground strips but will only be running three strips per event. We plan to have you in and out in 2 hours tops.
- each fencer will be assigned a dedicated area 12' apart from anyone else. Yes I said 12 feet. Fencer will be given a chair and must remain seated until called to their strip to bout then return to their seats. Wandering will not be permitted. Pictures https://wayofthesword.org/covid/
-one parent may stay for fencers 10 and younger. We will give you a chair to sit next to your child in their dedicated Wayspace. Don't bring a folding chair.
- refs will be 6' away with face masks
- fencers may use face masks or inserts in their fencing masks
- Saluting required before and after each bout but no contact
- Temp check prior to entry (over 100? We give you a 10-minute cool-down period outside prior to a second and final try. If your temperature reads over 100 a second time you must scratch and go home. We will refund you in full.
