Division Calendar
    Tournaments held in South Carolina must be sanctioned (approved) by the South Carolina Division if the tournament is to award USFA ratings.  Contact the Division Chair to request sanctioning for your tournament.  Please refer to the division's Sanctioning Policy for other tournament requirements.
    The South Carolina Division tries to avoid conflicts with tournaments within the state, and, as much as possible, with tournaments in neighboring divisions. 

2010-2011 Calendar
Listed below are South Carolina Division Sanctioned Tournaments as well as National tournaments held in the surrounding area. See AskFred.net for details about these and other tournaments.

Per Item 4, Part B of the Tournament Sanctioning Policy:
 

"Tournament directors must communicate their sanctioning requests directly to the Division Chair.  Posting a tournament on AskFred or otherwise advertising the tournament does not constitute a request for sanctioning.  Sanctioning requests must be made far enough in advance of the tournament that the Division has time to properly consider the request."


Further information regarding this policy may be found on the Documents page under SC Division Tournament Sanctioning Policy & Procedures.

UPDATE, 25 FEB 2009:  To complete the Sanctioning process, dates must be added to the Division Web Page at the time that Sanctioning is requested. You MUST e-mail the dates to the Division Secretary (Webmaster) at the time Sanctioning dates are requested and approved by the Division Chair so that the Tournament dates can be added to the published version of the Division Calendar (Web Page Calendar).

The Web Page Calendar serves as the Official Schedule for the South Carolina Division as well as for purposes of the National Office. Per Section 3-6 of the USFA Operations Manual, Tournaments that are not added to the Division Web Page Calendar WILL NOT BE SANCTIONED. Please visit http://usfencing.org for more information.



Copying the Secretary on the e-mail Sanctioning Request to the Division Chair is sufficient. Posting events on AskFred is NOT considered sufficient notification to expect or guarantee inclusion on the Division Calendar
