Rain City Fencing Center: Bellevue, WA RCFC presents our first youth tournament of the season. There will be foil events for all Youth age groups, plus Y14 Epee. FRED Announces the RCFC Youth #1 RCFC presents our first youth tournament of the season. There will be foil events for all Youth age groups, plus Y14 Epee. ------------------ Important Info: ------------------- Tournament: RCFC Youth #1 Date(s): 10/06/2012 Location: Rain City Fencing Center Event Schedule: Saturday, October 6th, 2012 9:30 AM - Doors open 10:00 AM - Y10, Y14 Foil 1:00 PM - Y8, Y12 Foil; Y14 Epee All times are close of registration. Entry fee is $10 (plus tax) per event. Except for the Youth-8 event, all competitors must be current 2012-2013 competitive members of USA Fencing (or equivalent). You may join USA Fencing or renew your membership for the new season at the tournament, or online at http://www.usfencing.org/ (please print your membership card and bring it to the tournament). All competitors must have full regulation uniform including underarm protector and fencing pants. Rain City Fencing Center has limited quantities of equipment available for purchase or rental. Fencers may rent club electric gear for $10 per tournament (or $25 per month). Bear in mind that club gear is often unreliable for competition. Whether you're using club gear or your own, make sure it's in good working order and your weapons will pass the weight test! Also, all fencers should have two working weapons and two working body cords at the strip with them. Fencers in the Y8 and Y10 foil events must use #2 or shorter blades. New for this season: All foil fencers at all competition levels must have masks with conductive bibs. RCFC has electric foil masks, mask cords, and retrofit kits for BG "Olympic" masks available for sale, but rental of electric masks is VERY limited. Epee fencers note: Because a conductive surface can cause an opponent's weapon to ground out, electric foil masks are NOT permitted in the epee event. Two-weapon fencers will need two masks or a mask with an exchangeable bib.
