Details:

• This tournament is run by the Virginia Division.
• Junior events are open to fencers born in 1989 to 1995. (13 to 19 years old on December 31, 2008.)
• Cadet events are open to fencers born in 1992 to 1995. (13 to 16 years old on December 31, 2008.)
• All participants must be current members of the USFA with valid membership card present at check in. Participants without proof of membership will be required to fill out a new USFA membership application including payment by check or credit card.
• The times listed for each event are the close of registration. Fencers arriving after that time may not be allowed to enter. The bout committee has sole discretion to allow late entries, and in all cases an additional $5 late registration fee will be charged.
• The format is a round of pools, 6 or 7 fencers in each pool, followed by DEs. Either 100% or 80% will advance to DEs depending on total size of each event and at the bout committee's determination. In general, events larger than 60 people will have a cut, and smaller events will not.
• All events are fenced electric with the latest USFA adopted timings, and each fencer must have at least two working body cords and weapons with them at the strip.
• Fencers must have all protective gear to compete. Knickers are required, sweatpants and jeans are not permitted.
• In the unlikely event of natural disaster or impassable weather, visit the Online Forum or send mail or call any member of the Executive Committee for the latest information on event postponement or cancellation.
• This web page and the 7 officers of the division are the only official sources of information for this tournament. If the information from two or more sources conflicts, call or email the division chairman. If you get your information from any other source (like a teammate or a club newsletter), you risk being misinformed.
