    Las Vegas World Cup 2006 question

    i wonder if one of your might help out. my gf is qualified to enter the Las Vegas World Cup in June. However, even with the registration deadline being May 10th, we are unable to locate an entry form or schedule on the usfa national or international websites, or fie website or anywhere else on the web.

    help!

    Just go to the Stardust Hotel and Casino, put your entry fee on Black-27 and hope for the best.

    You can't enter yourself; all entry into World Cups needs to be done through the NGB of your contry; in this case the USFA. Give the office a ring; you can find the number on www.usfencing.org.

    according to the international fencing website, the las vegas world cup is open to all women foilists currently on the senior points list. there is an application form that goes through the usfa for world cups that are NOT in the usa available on-line, however this clearly states there is ANOTHER form for world cups that ARE held in the usa.

    the international website also states that the entry forms for the las vegas world cup will be available mid-april. last time i looked at my calendar, it was may. <g>

    i understand that the entry form has to go through the usfa, but the question still stands - where is the entry form, and where is the schedule? hopefully the usfa will have both available soon. if anyone out there can provide either of these, please let me know.

    thanks!

    Again, this is a USFA issue, and the fastest way to get an answer is to call them directly.

    Corinne Greenspan at the USFA is in charge of international entries...I emailed with her last week and she mentioned that she thought they'd have the entry ready by today -- but I don't think it's ready yet.

    Corinne just sent out the registration forms and tournament information to fencers on the WS and WF points lists. I would contact her directly if you have yet to receive them. Given the late availability of forms, the deadline for entry was extended to May 17th.
