For each category there will, depending on numbers, be one or two rounds of pools for all fencers  followed by a Direct Elimination

Normally all fencers can expect to be included in the DE, but if numbers are large there may have to be a cut, but only if two rounds of pools are fought. The format will be described on the day.

If ladies or men’s numbers are low, then ladies and men may be given the option of fencing the pools (but not the DE) together.

British Fencing clothing and equipment rules will be enforced.

Open to BF members over 13 but there are also additional medals (and trophy) for the highest Surrey Fencers as well as medals (and trophy) for the highest South East Region – England Fencers.
