    Schlager7, I saw that your post referenced the club dynamic, but KatyFencing's replies indicated that he had presented a solution to division leadership which received no reply.

    Do I understand correctly that it is only the division leadership that can cuase an alternate assignment of a weekend? Could you address in its simplest form (which I realize may still be pretty complicated) exactly what division policies are on the topic of hosting and sanctioning tournaments?

    A vague notion moves me to comment that the title of this thread is "Qualification Concerns about Candidates."

    I'm sorry, but were these two posts supposed to convince me that you're not obsessed with your divisional politics but instead motivated by your deep concern for issues that actually affect a majority (or at least a significant minority...) of the USFA?

    Your petty squabbles within your own division do not cause me to want to grant you political power on a higher level... quite the opposite, in fact.

    Simply put, each club in our division gets one exclusive weekend for a tournament. All other weekends are negotiable. (Youth vs Vet/ Div 1 vs E & Under/ Foil vs epee... you get the idea).

    As far as I know Augie has only just (in the last week) petitioned for the Young Elites weekend of June 21-22.

    Sorry for the drift...

    Well, Augie's posts here have had a direct effect on my perception of how qualified he is to hold a national office...

    No they don't. They don't effect your perception at all, in fact

    This isn't a qualification concern but wasn't sure where to ask this but just out of curiosity, if Kalle Weeks is elected president, will she still be Tournament Committee chair?

    My understanding is no. She will, in her role as president, appoint a new TC Chair to be approved by the BOD.
