Black Card Note: in GBR Domestic Events the fencer is immediately excluded from the competition and suspended from the remainder of the tournament.  Details must be reported to British Fencing – headoffice@britishfencing.com – for consideration under the Disciplinary Process, which may result in the imposition of additional penalties.  The additional FIE penalty of two months suspension from competition only applies automatically to FIE Events.

Chest Protector Notes: in GBR Domestic Events the new FIE standard chest protectors will not be obligatory until season 2019-20 – and only for Cadet, Junior and Senior BF Ranking events.
