ANU Annual 2021
In 2021 the ANU Annual will be held in a different format than it has been in the past, due to the current unusual circumstances. We will be holding open events in all three weapons over three separate weeks, with the poules taking place on Tuesday nights, and the elimination on Sundays. In light of this, the competition will be free for all ANU Fencing Club members, and 5$ per weapon for non-club entrants.

Safety and equipment requirements: Normal ANU safety rules apply. Breeches recommended for all events. Conductive bibs will be required for open foil. If you would like to borrow gear from the ANU fencing club, please speak with a member of the committee in advance of the competition.
What if I can’t make it on one of the days? If you can’t attend the poules on Tuesday, you can still enter the competition, and you will be seeded in last place for the elimination. If you can’t attend the elimination on Sunday your result will be a 15-0 loss in your first DE bout.
