Rules:
According to the general FIE rules. The FIE blades are obligatory in the individual FIE Satellite competitions. Obligatory identification: the name and country of the fencer must be indicated on the back of the jacket and the country flag on the trousers.
Referees:
Important, please note: According to the general FIE rules (art. o.81): every country with more than 4 fencers per category must present at least one referee, and with more than 9 fencers per category at least two referees.
For A Grade or candidate A Grade competitions, should a national federation not bring the required number of referees, it will be charged a fine of 500 Euros/750 Swiss francs if the organiser was informed 15 days before the competition, or of 1000 Euros/1500 Swiss francs if the organiser was not informed 15 days before the competition.
This fine must be paid by the delegation to the organisers, who may keep this amount provided that they ensure the services of the referee(s) necessary to replace the missing referee(s). This fine reverts to the FIE if the organisers do not arrange the presence of replacement international referees, who may be from the organising country. Under whatever circumstances, if a national federation does not pay this fine, it must reduce the participation of its fencers in conformity with the quotas.
