Attention all Senior Squad Fencers:

A reminder that the Australian Schools Senior Championships are coming up on 23-24 July at the NSW Fencing Centre.

As the events are happening locally and the Individual event qualification only requires participation in any of the previous NSWFA competitions, we will endorse all SBHS Senior Squad Fencers who wish to participate in the individual events. The individual events are voluntary for our fencers, but encouraged if you wish to gain higher level competition experience.

Please follow the link below for more information and to register if you wish to fence in the Individual event.

Important Notes:

• Closing date for registering is 4pm on Thursday 21 July – late fee has been waived by AFF.
• All fencers are responsible for registering themselves and paying the entry fee ($95) to participate in the relevant Individual event.
• Individual and team events will be held on the same day for each weapon.
• Teams are selected by the SBHS Coaching Team and the team registration and team entry fees will be managed by the MIC. For Team lists, please visit: https://sbhsfencing.com/2022-results/
• You do not have to fence in the individual event to be a part of the team event (pending team selection). However, if you do fence the individual event, your ranking/results from the individual event will contribute to the team seeding for the team event.
• Coaches and staff supervision are scheduled to attend and assist on both days of the competition.
• The AFF has confirmed that 350N masks will be OK, as they were for the Intermediate Schools in Canberra recently.
