Fioretto Fencing Club would like to invite all junior secondary school foil fencers to a schools competition at Fioretto Hall on Saturday 30th June.
They will be testing a Division A and Division B system to encourage new fencers to participate in competitions with fields more adapted to their level.
Please read below for the Division qualification criteria. It is our hope that this will provide a strong competition for developed fencers and a more uniform and encouraging competition for developing fencers. The system will be subject to review.
Due to space and time limitations they will -
- Only run Jnr Secondary age group (school years 6-9 only). No up age grouping please.
- Run Comps will be as mixed pooles (there will be 2 competitions running parallel already)
- Girls DE matches and medals (1-3 gold only, 3-4 gold and silver, 5+ all 3 medals)
Please Note: If numbers are low, all fencers will be mixed for pooles, and DE phase will be divided for Divisions and gender (1-3 gold only, 3-4 gold and silver, 5+ all 3 medals).
Qualification for Divisions
Division A
Any fencer that has finished in the
- top 16 at any National (AFF) event or Koala Cup, in any weapon.
- finished in the top 50% of a Fencing Victoria competition, regardless of age group, where there have been 8+ fencers in the competition.
Please Note: There are no age group exemptions - a mark of respect for our young fencers
Division B
- All other fencers are qualified for Division B.
- Fencers may opt to fence in the higher Division A if they wish, but the 2 Divisions will compete at the same time, so no double entries are possible
