TOURNAMENT ORGANIZATION
All events will be fenced electrically. Masks, body cords, cuffs and lames will be subject to equipment control. Original seeding will be according to USFA Operations Manual for Senior and Youth events. One round of pools will be fenced; 100% promoted to DE's of 15 touches (2 out of 3 five touch bouts for Y10 & Y12). Initial seeding, seeding after pools and final placements will be posted in the venue. Fencers are responsible for verifying the posted lists, and signing their pool and DE sheets.
Youth 10 and Youth 12 events may be split by gender if more than 6 entrants from both genders are registered. Otherwise medals will be given to top fencer from each gender.
Senior Mixed Sabre event will use the "Canadian Elite Format." At the start, it will be fenced as normal (pools, with 100% promotion to a DE Table). Upon reaching the Round of 16, all remaining fencers will be seeded based upon results up to that point into two "super pools" of 8 fencers each, fenced upon 4 strips. 50% of the competitors will be promoted into a DE Bracket of 8, which will be fenced out as normal.
USFA MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED
Fencers must be a USFA or FIE Member. Proof of membership is required. Pre-registered fencers will receive membership status information via askFRED email using most current USFA membership data. Age status will be checked against USFA membership data - bring proof of age if there are discrepancies. While fencers are encouraged to get memberships directly through the USFA prior to the competition, completed USFA membership forms will be accepted at the door. If you do not have proof of membership, you will be required to complete and pay for a membership. Payment for memberships is made directly to the USFA (NO CASH!); bring separate check or credit card number (preferred) for membership. Fencers under 18 years old are reminded they need the signature of a parent or guardian (not a coach) on BOTH the membership and waiver forms.
WAIVER OF LIABILITY
The North Texas Division Waiver of Liability is required to be filled out and signed. It can be downloaded at www.northtexasfencing.org/gov_docs/waiverconsent.pdf
