Event Information:
This is a six category senior open. This event will give senior national ranking
points.
For those in the South West, this event will also give regional ranking points.
Competition Format:
One or two rounds of poules followed by direct eliminations (the number of
rounds will depend on numbers on the day).
No cut after poules, all fencers progress on to DEs.
No fight-off for third place.
Additionally, we hope to have space for some optional extra fencing after the
standard open event for those who are interested. The format for this will be
decided on the day; for example, it could be a plate competition for those
knocked out in the first couple of rounds, or a blank poule sheet for some
fun fencing. The aim of this is to utilise the space we have to offer as much
extra fencing opportunities as we can to those who would like it.
