Anyone going to the Canadian Westerns this year?

Hello...

Are any of you folks considering competing in or going to the Westerns this year?

Where are they?
I couldn't find the info on the CFF website.

After checking BC's, Manitoba’s, the Canadian Fencing Federation, and finally Alberta’s I found the info. It’s in Calgary April 29th.

Sigh… I wish Canadian fencing websites were better at posting info.

It's close enough I might go, I may not fence... but I might go.

April 29th?

Guess I'd better start eating my Wheaties...

Based on what I see on their website, Alberta looks like a good province to fence in. There's quite a few tournaments that add to your national rankings (only certain ones are sanctioned by the CFF).

CFF used to list which events were sanctioned... I couldn't find it. I really, really hate the CFF website... I spend way too much time trying to find info that's hidden in some stupid place.... enough ranting.

When I get competing (and caring about my national ranking again), I’m thinking of hitting a few tourneys in Alberta, the drive can be a b’itch (12-14 hours) but cheap flights can be found and it’s only an hour.

The Alberta Fencing Association website, www.fencing.ab.ca, contains all of our tournament info *and* it offers electronic registration for competitions.
