Competitive Fencers - COACHING

At CFA the goal is to help all fencers achieve their goals, both personal and competitive.  As part of the CFA team, I ask that you consider these policies.

CLUB REPRESENTATION AND COACHING

The following apply to all of CFA fencers, both local and national.  Any fencer is welcome to fence at CFA open fencing sessions or to take classes or clinics at CFA (with payment of the appropriate fees). 

TRAVEL TOURNAMENTS AND COACH'S EXPENSES 

CFA charges a fee to fencers for coach’s travel, and require that all fencers traveling to a tournament split all the coach’s travel expenses among them.  The standard coaching fee is $50 per event fenced for any tournament.  For example, if a fencer fences Y12 and Y14 foil at a youth NAC, the coaching fee will be $100.

Traveling expenses include airfare, lodging, and a $40 per diem, which helps cover food, taxis, etc.

Expected coaching fee per fencer can be determined by the time of the tournament’s entry deadline.

Youth, Cadet, and Junior fencers need to consult with their coach about attending their first RYC, SYC, NAC, or Summer Nationals.  Fencer should always consult their coach regarding the appropriateness of the tournament and which events to fence before registering for an RYC, SYC, NAC, or the Summer Nationals.
The coach will set coaching priorities for each day’s events.  Despite best efforts, not everyone will get equal time at every tournament.  In general, fencers new to a particular level of competition will get more attention in the warm-up and pools.  More experienced fencers will get more attention in the DE’s.  CFA coach is experienced and knowledgeable and will do her absolute best to set priorities in the best interests of the fencers at any given tournament.​​​
