United Square (High Performance Centre)
![]() | For each League competition, fencers will proceed straight to the Direct Eliminations (D.E.). Fencers will be ranked on the first day (Fri Apr 23) based on last year’s Z Gala 2009 results. Thereafter, with each League competition, all participants will be ranked again. |
Direct Eliminations With “Repechage” or “Hope Run”
Through Z Chivalry League, we will also be introducing a system of D.E. with “Repechage”.
This essentially allows fencers who have been eliminated in a bout to be given a second chance to re-enter the D.E. and fence again.
This system allows for more fencing opportunities for everyone.
Points Awarded After Each Monthly League Competition:
- 1st (12 points)
- 2nd (10 points)
- Joint 3rd (8 points)
- 5-8th (6 points)
- 9-12th (4 points)
- 13-16th (3 points)
- 17-24th (2 points)
- 25th & lower (1 point)
After each League Competition, the League points will be tallied and the overall leader of each category will be awarded a “Z Chivalry” mask sticker for the fencer to proudly display on her/his fencing mask.
Handicap System:
To allow for maximum opportunity for everyone to become League Champions, Z Chivalry League will adopt a handicap points system.
For each D.E. bout, the fencer with the higher Z Grade will give her/his opponent points advantage in direct relationship to the difference in their Z Grades.
For each grade difference, there will be a 2 point advantage for the lower grade in each 10-point bout.
For example:
Remember: Z Chivalry League is about participation and fencing for your charity. By participating, everyone wins!
