FN Secondary Schools Foil Teams Event 2025 - School Manager Booking Portal
Event description
Fencing North Secondary Schools Foil Teams Competition
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
THIS REGISTRATION PORTAL IS FOR SCHOOL TEAM MANAGERS AND COACHES ONLY.
The person registering teams is in charge of distributing and forwarding any information concerning this event to team members (we will send updates to this person directly from this booking portal)
- The competition is for foil teams from individual schools and if entries permit, will have separate Men’s Team Foil and Women’s Team Foil events.
Please remember that School teams are selected by the schools. You must make up school teams first.
- Composite Teams may be formed ONLY where there are not enough fencers at a school to field the minimum team size of three fencers.
Composite teams are allowed to win the competition and claim the title of regional winners. The winning school team will be awarded the top regional school award.
- Mixed Gender Teams - we intend to run the event gender separated, but should a school have insufficient fencers to form a single gender team then as this is a regional competition we will allow entry of ONE mixed gender team from a school. In this case we reserve the right to add the mixed teams to either the men's or women's events.
If you are an individual fencer looking to join a team contact us directly and we will do our best to find you a team.
Please contact us direct at Fencing North Tournaments

Schools may submit as many teams as they like, BUT we have a limit of 10 pistes and there is a shortage of referees available at the moment.
We will do our best to accommodate all entries and will confirm entries with all schools by lunchtime on Thursday 6th June.
If we have to limit entries we will select the A team of each school first. Spaces still remaining will be filled by the B teams, on a first come, first serve basis. Composite teams are considered B teams for registration purposes. Any slots remaining after allocation to B teams will be allocated to C teams and so on.
Please provide names of team members at time of registration if possible, This gives us time to enter new fencers into our database. We will contact you requesting team composition during the week before the competition.
team members may be changed at registration on competition day but no changes to the named fencers are permitted after registration/check-in.
Certificates will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd equal placed teams only.
All team members are eligible for a certificate and will be asked to join their team on the podium.
