December NAC

Health & Safety Protocols

Mask Mandate

As announced in October 2020, all participants in USA Fencing sanctioned events, including coaches, athletes, spectators and staff, MUST wear a facemask that covers mouth and nose at all times, including competition.

Proof of Vaccination

Individuals who have completed a COVID vaccine series (Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca, Sinopharm and Sinovac) 14 days prior to arrival at the venue will NOT need to obtain a negative PCR test result, but they must provide proof of vaccination daily upon entrance into the venue. Proof of vaccination must be presented to the USA Fencing staff members at registration for verification.

COVID-19 Testing

All participants in the tournament who have not completed one of the COVID-19 vaccine series listed above at least 14 days prior to the start of the tournament must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test result in order to enter the facility. This includes athletes and staff as well as all coaches and spectators. The COVID-19 PCR test must be taken no more than 72 hours prior to the start of travel and must be shown daily to enter the venue. Proof of your negative COVID-19 test result must be presented to the USA Fencing staff members at registration for verification. Inspire Diagnostics will be providing mail-in testing kits again for the December NAC, and you may order yours if needed by clicking here.

If a fencer must withdraw, requests must be reported, in writing, to the National Office. To submit your withdrawal request, email withdrawals@usafencing.org.
