| Hey this is Crazy Whacker
Hey umm I'm The Crazy Whacker or something like that, i can't remember the name or the pass so i just made a new account. lol.
Anyways I just came on to see What type of blades are required for tournaments... i.e. Maraging, Non-Maraging (i'm prolly asking this in the wrong place)
Anyways, any help would be appreciated

| Someone told me last night that you had to be rated to qualify, i.e. E, D, C, B or A. I would also guess that you would have to be a member of the USFA.

| I was unrated for Junior Olympics last year, you don't need a rating (Unless there's been a rules change). You just need to be a member of the USFA and qualify through your division's tournament.

| Dylan,
Just show up to a USFA sanctioned tournament and they will have registration forms for you to sign up.

| Dude;
Go to http://www.socalfence.org and go to the schedule section. There's a link there that says "going to your first tournament? Read this!" It takes you to a primer I wrote for beginners and should cover most of your questions. |
