How Do I Enter?

The easiest way is to enter and pay OnLine (click here).  You can then choose to either pay online (via PayPal) or use the more traditional methods of cheque and snail-mail.

• If you select Pay OnLine, you will be automatically directed to the PayPal site.  You do NOT need a PayPal account to pay using this; on the screen you will see an option to pay by Debit/Credit card.  Your details are safe, and not transmitted outside of PayPal.

• If you select to Pay By Post, your entry will be submitted, but held with a status of 'Not Paid'.   You will be presented with a pre-filled entry form to print.  This should be sent, along with your payment, to:

Welsh Open Entries
c/o 43 Heol Miskin
Pontyclun
CF72 9AJ

Give me a couple of days to process your entry, and you will be able to check your entry status online.  If you have sent your payment, and your status remains at 'Not Paid', get in touch with me (webmaster@welshfencing.org).

Please note that your entry fee is not-refundable.

Is there a Plate competition?

No, we will not be running a Plate competition.  We have found that the start of this is often delayed by many hours, causing much frustration for everyone.  We therefore prefer to promote everyone into the D/E.

Where is it held?

This is held at the Welsh Institute of Sport.

The full address is:

Welsh Institute of Sport
Cathedral Road
Cardiff
CF11 9SW

You can get detailed directions/map from their website: http://www.welsh-institute-sport.co.uk/

Please note that there is limited free parking at the site.  If there is no free parking left, you will need to use a pay-and-display carpark.  We cannot refund any car-park fees.

Where can I stay?

What else will be there?
