Victorian Varsity Beginners Competition
Competition Details
The competition will be held on May 14 at the State Fencing Centre, Arden Street, North Melbourne.
Roll call is at 3pm, with the competition starting at 3:30pm.
How to Enter
Contact your University Fencing Club; once affiliated with Fencing Victoria you will just need to pay $5 on the day.
Who is Competing?
Foil fencers from La Trobe, Monash, and Melbourne Universities who have under 2 years fencing experience.
Fencers from other Universities are also welcome (see contact details below).
Competition Format
A double round robin style, the first – seeding – round of the competition is run as mixed gender pools (usually 6-8 fencers per pool).
At the conclusion of the pools, each fencer is given a ranking based on the number of bouts won, lost, and the hits in each bout.
Then the ranked fencers are broken up into three groups, and allocated to a pool each (a Gold pool, a Silver Pool, and a Bronze pool).
This means that there is a natural grouping in the second round of similar-skill fencers.
Typically, this will mean that each fencer has up to 12-16 five-hit bouts as part of the overall competition.
A nominal prize is awarded at the end of the second round to the winner of each of the Gold, Silver, and Bronze pools.
Uniform and Equipment Requirements
Details of the uniform and equipment requirements may be found on the FV website (click here).
Please read these carefully (note: this is an “Novice Competition”).
Please also note that conductive bibs will not be required for this competition.
Universities will provide equipment for athletes if required.
