ASQUITH OPEN NOVELTY EVENTS

The Asquith Garde Fencing Association will once again be hosting the popular Open Mixed Duel at this year's Asquith Open. This one-hit Épée event will be in progress all day Sunday, April 5th - matches begin at 9:00 a.m. but late entries will be accepted until 2:00 p.m. Each match has a three minute time limit. Double hits are recorded as a double loss. A complete round robin will be held to seed for the Direct Elimination Tableau. Double losses in the D.E. will be settled by a coin toss. There will only be a first prize: The Court Sword Épée. Entry fee is $10 for each fencer for this event and may be paid by cash or cheque payable to AGFA at the event.

Being held once again this year is the Double Sabre event. It is essentially sabre fenced with a sabre in each hand. The fencers will wear sabre masks and foil lames, and it will be judged like regular sabre. This event will also be held on Sunday, April 5th at a time to be determined. Entries will be accepted at the Asquith Open.

The Under-13 (born 1996 or later), Master (born 1979 or before), and Novelty events are open to both Regular and Limited fencers. If you are unsure as to whether or not you qualify for the Under-13 or Master event, contact the SFA at saskfencing@shaw.ca.

Early-bird entry fee discount deadline is 10:00 p.m., Thursday, March 26, 2009
