This is one of the events in the 8th Annual Tri-State Veterans Saber Cup!
Last season’s Cup produced four A2-rated Vet XS events, 12 A/B ratings, 10 C/D/E ratings and saw the participation of 64 unique fencers across five events. These are among the largest Vet Saber events in the country outside of the Veteran NACs. In addition to East Coast fencers, competitors have included attendees from as far away as Atlanta and Chicago.
COVID protocols for Cup events will be at least as strict as the protocols for the Vet NACs in effect at the time of the Cup event. More information may be provided closer to the event at the discretion of the Club.
HOW WILL THE CUP WINNER DETERMINED?
In addition to individual event awards, the Top 3 MS and the Top 3 WS fencers in the 2022-2023 Cup Standings at the end of the season will be recognized.
2022-2023 Cup Standings will be determined as follows:
1. Each fencer will get credit for points earned in their three best finishes (as measured by points) at
2022-2023 Cup events
2. For each 2022-2023 Cup event, fencers will receive points based on their finish and letter ratings of
other participants who finish below them:
a. Each fencer will be assigned a value based on their rating (A=7, B=6, C=5, D=4, E=3, U=2)
b. Fencers will earn points equal to the sum of the point values of all fencers who finish below them, plus
2 points
c. In the case of Vet XS, MS will earn points for all MS finishers below them; WS will earn points for all
fencers (MS or WS) below them
3. Ties in the Cup Standings will be resolved in favor of the fencer that received the higher number of points at a single Cup event
