The FORGE Priority on Youth tournament series is designed to provide a fun and positive atmosphere for youth to develop their competition skills and experience, while fostering their love and passion for competition. These events are geared towards athletes who are building skills to help them compete at the USA Fencing Regional and National level of competition.
Medals are awarded to the top 4 in each event, with all fencers earning points towards the end of year prize table. Athletes will earn points by participating in each event. Athletes that participate in 4/5 of the tournament dates will be eligible to select an amazing prize from our prize table after the completion of the final event.
There is a $5 registration fee and the event fees are $30 per event. Event fees are paid online at the time of registration. The registration deadline is the THURSDAY before weekend of the event. Walk-in registrations are allowed, but at $50 per event. Registering early helps us plan better.
Times listed are close of check-in. Fencers should plan on arriving to the venue one hour prior to the start of the event to allow time to check-in and warm-up and get dressed.
