Div2: 2009 or Earlier
Div1A: 2009 or Earlier
VET: 1983 or Earlier

Which event should you do if you meet the age requirements of several events? First, experience is experience, and a challenge is a challenge. If you think challenging yourself against really tough fencers, then it’s always good to fence tough fencers. That being said, the Junior age level event will probably be the most difficult event. If this is your first National/Regional event, I would consider doing the Div2 event. Gabe will be doing the Div2 men’s foil event.
