Any word on the ROCs?

[Darr]

I have not heard any news on what tournaments will be a part of the Regional Open Circuit (ROC) for the 09-10 season. Does anyone know of any information pertaining to the location and dates of the ROC tournaments or when such information will become available?

Also on the USFA page, clearly under the "Competitions" tab, the "ROC" choice: http://www.usfencing.org/content/index/6887

Also, Peet is just finishing up the updates to turn the existing NOC sub-domain on FRED into the 2009-2010 ROC sub-domain, so that conversion should be finished within the next week or so.

In the meantime, the first two tournaments are now listed and are accepting entries:

Once the new FRED URL is live, I'll publish that both here on f.net and on the soon-to-exist ROC blog we'll have on the USFA website.

ROC on...

And that's the real reason we changed the name--much better t-shirt potential.
