Clipboard has been updated with the rolls for Saturday.
Please note that for NSWFA events, students are asked to bring their student ID cards and present it to the Director of Tournament (DT) to check in before the start of their competition.
For all competitions, please aim to arrive 60 minutes earlier than your start time so that you can check in with the DT, get your name marked off the Clipboard roll with your coach, and warm up sufficiently before your first official bout. Referees are to check in with the DT 30 minutes before the start time.
For Squad Fencers competing in NSWFA events, it may be a very long day so remember to pack food and water, bring a towel, and wear correct uniform (school sock on back leg, school tracksuit jacket for medal presentations).
We wish our fencers all the best for this weekend!
Cheers,

Update regarding qualification for Nationals: I have sought clarification regarding qualifying events for Nationals and have been informed by NSWFA that any fencer who participates in NSWFA school competitions (including the AJ Rae and Roberta Nutt) are eligible to participate in the National Schools Championships.
As such (and as per previous season), we will only be submitting Sabre Squad Fencers into the remaining two NSWFA events. Epee and Foil Squad Fencers will prioritise League events and friendlies for the rest of the season to complement their training.
We have the following events happening on Saturday:
- NSWSFL U19 Epee Individual DE + Finals + Medal Ceremony (Venue: SACS)
- NSWFA School Championships: U14 & U16 Individual Competition – SBHS Sending Sabre only
- Foil Team Friendly with SGS, hosted at SBHS Gym
- Development Training (Foil and Epee – venue: SBHS COLA for Epee, SBHS Gym for Foil)
Please check the 2024 Results page for details on fencers, refs and start times:
