LFC Capital City Youth Classic 2005

The 2005 Capital City Youth Classic was February 26-27, 2005.

This was a Regional Youth Circuit Event

Tournament Director:  Lisa Franz

We also have pictures from the event.  Click here to view the pictures page.  Warning:  There are a lot of pictures.   

Sponsor:
Blade Fencing
was an official sponsor.  Blade Fencing provided a blade to the first
place winner and a body cord to each second place winner of the individual
events for the Youth Classic.

The tournament was a great success, from our point of view. This was the biggest tournament we ever hosted, with registrations and walk-ins far beyond what we expected.  There were delays and some snags, but we're still proud.  We plan to observe some other tournaments and hope next year will be an improvement.

We offer our profound thanks to those who served as Directors, Armorers, Registration table workers, Vending workers, those who helped hook up kids, and those who helped comfort kids.  No tournament is run without volunteers, and you have our deepest thanks. 

The results are now up.  It is a PDF file, so you will need the free Adobe Acrobat reader to use it.  Click here to download.

Pictures will come as soon as the Webmaster can settle down to doing them properly.  

We appreciate all of those dedicated fencers who stayed to the very end. We apologize to those who's schedules were thrown off by the overwhelming turnout at our 7th Annual Tournament. We are very excited about the folks that attended from 7 different states! These are the stats:

Registered fencers = 138
Saturday event entries = 130
Sunday event entries = over 200 in 14 different events

There were many questions regarding ratings earned at the tournament. USFA rules state that no ratings can be awarded, nor points awarded for the RYC events due to the age restrictions if they are E1 or D1 classifications. Ratings can only be given at age restricted events if the event is a C1 classification or higher. Some points can be awarded at the SuperRYC events. Please visit the USFA website for more information. http://www.usfencing.org/
