The formats for each event have been planned based on the numbers of fencers in the event, to try and ensure a reasonable amount of fencing for all fencers, conscious of the fact that this is a selection event and that this event is to find the Age Group Champion for each Age Group. It has been decided that if an event has less than 5 participants then they will be merged with the next category above or below (1 & 2 merged or 3 & 4 merged only).
Currently that is only affecting MF1 and WS1. If other categories fall below the min of 5 on the day of the event then the format will be changed to adjust for the merging.
Currently the formats for each event are but please be aware these may be adjusted on the day of the event if entry numbers change:
