Welcome back to the fifth Sword Crush! We're pleased to have you return and to spend the weekend with us.
This year we have decided to do something different and forego longsword and rapier to give attention to other weapons
Introducing: Smallsword, Messer, and Sword and Buckler!
Keep tabs of all updates on our Facebook Page.
NOTE!: If there is a sold out tournament, you may add yourself to the waitlist [HERE]

If you are only spectating and do not wish to free spar, there is NO need to purchase an admission ticket.
IMPORTANT: If this is your first time fencing with us, please ensure you have filled out the online waiver here. This will save you a lot of time during check in!
Scheduling Change: To help facilitate a smoother tournament experience, we will no longer have a dedicated lunch hour and will be running all day. Please make sure to account for meals during the event. However between individual tournaments, there will be a short break to rotate staff.

REFUND POLICY:

All sales are final. However, some or all of your order may be transferred to another person. Simply email "[email protected]" with the transferee's name, club and tickets to be transferred.

FORMAT:
Finals will occur immediately after the semi-finals bouts for that tournament, not at the end of the day. The top 16 fencers from pools will advance to elims, except for any tournament with fewer than 16 fencers, in which case the advancing fencers will be determined day of, but will be between 4 to 8.
