Tournament Housing:
Housing Service & Venue Liaison (HSVL): A successful bid must meet the hotel contract
requirements of the HSVL company which is PSA Sports, Attention: Patrick Higgins,
801.923.8371, email: p_higgins@team-psa.com (www.psa-sports.com). PSA Sports shall mange
the sleeping room contracts and registration management as well as review the city/venue
proposals on behalf of USA Fencing. The sleeping room rate shall include a 10% commission
payable to PSA Sports. In addition, a rebate that benefits USA Fencing may also be levied. The
inclusion of a rebate and its amount will be determined by the specific package proposed by the
CVB, City or Sports Commission for the particular event.
There will be a cut-off date of 30 days prior to the first day of the Event for room reservations. Only
then can individual hotels release the block and issue these rooms to the general public. PSA
Sports will not sign any contract that contains an “Attrition/Performance Clause.” The Headquarters
Hotel must include Staff and Official’s rooms that are negotiated at a reduced room rate. These
staff rates should be proposed ‘net’. No commission should be levied. An earned complimentary
room policy of a 1/35 for full service hotels and a 1/20 for limited service hotels is the norm. A
minimum of ten free parking passes should be provided for each event. Other ‘added values’
proposed by the properties should be reflected in bid. A sample schedule of the staff needs and
breakdown of room use is available upon request.
Host Organizations:
Cities, City organizations or Sports Commissions interested in hosting a national tournament
should complete the Request to Host Form and submit it to the PSA. This form must be
accompanied by prospective hotel and venue information including venue diagram, specific
dimensions and cost. Hotel rates and distance from the venue, along with any other
information that will enhance the bid, should also be included. In lieu of a bid fee, organizations
interested in hosting an event should be prepared to arrange (hotel, airfare, etc…) a site visit
for 2 USA Fencing representatives to inspect the proposed facilities. After the Request to Host
Form has been received, Fencing representatives will schedule a site inspection to review bid
specifications – venue, hotel, location, services, and transportation. A bid that includes a
venue that is inclined to include complimentary coffee/water for tournament officials,
free lobby/venue wireless internet, six complimentary (large capacity) athlete water
stations throughout the event (on set-up days and on competition days), complimentary
tables, chairs and staging for awards/bout committee for the tournament will be given
first consideration by USA Fencing.
Cities, City organizations or Sports Commissions that are submitting bids are encouraged to
obtain the support of the local USA Fencing Section, Division or Club when forming the Local
Organizing Committee (LOC). The inclusion of a local fencing club will give added publicity to
not only the event, but to the local club as well. The commitment of local volunteers with
fencing experience to serve on the LOC will enhance the chance for a favorable response from
the Tournament Committee and the USFA National Office. USA Fencing can assist in
introducing a local fencing contact.
An LOC (local organizing committee) that is comprised of both representatives of a local
fencing club and CVB/Sports Commission members provides the most attractive combination
for a successful event. The following information is offered to assist your organization in
assessing the feasibility of hosting a USA Fencing tournament.

12. Meeting rooms must be included with the Exhibit Hall for Officials and Committee
Meetings.
Space requirements are determined by number of strips that can be incorporated into one
open area. These requirements also include the Bout Committee, Armory, and the Sports
Medicine areas. It is also desirable that a finals strip is separated from the preliminary strips, to
provide special attention for athletes, enhance the audience seating, and offer space for
television access.
Benefits for the Local Organizing Committee:
For a USA Fencing Section, Division or Club, acting as the LOC for a national tournament
provides local and national exposure as well as financial rewards to the organizing committee.
In all cases, USA Fencing strives to ensure a financial benefit to the LOC who is hosting the
national event. Included is a draft LOC contract with base fees paid to the LOC. Additional
revenue can be earned through local sponsorships, producing an event program including paid
advertisements, strip sponsorships, etc…

Ideal Specifications
As with any event, there are ideal scenarios USA Fencing looks for in the selection of a host
city. While not always necessary for a successful bid, the following elements are examples
of how details can truly make a difference.

City located within a close proximity of a hub airport.

Securing a minimal facility rental fee with free move in day and no fee for meeting space for
meals and Committee gatherings.

Hosting an event during a city’s off-season and using a business hotel on a weekend, to
minimize the cost of the hotel room block not to exceed $99 - $129 per night (in 2011 dollars).

A list of Restaurants/local attractions that will provide a discount for our members when
presented with a USA Fencing Membership Card.

Having the host hotels within walking distance of the venue for convenience and to
alleviate USA Fencing of having to use a shuttle system.

In addition to the venue concessions, restaurants within walking distance to the
competition venue.

Provide prizes for the top eight athletes in each event (# of events * 6 weapons).

Local activities in conjunction with the tournament can provide participants with
entertainment options in addition to the fencing competition.

Securing of city/local grants to aid local grassroots/developmental fencing programs.

Commitment of local media to promote the event.

Taking additional steps to relieve USA Fencing of tournament expenses. Bids that cover the
costs of water service, internet, tables/chairs/staging, & shuttle transportation, if required, and
facility rental are viewed favorably.

Complimentary official’s breakfast (at the hotel or venue) must be included as an incentive as
well as vendor parking at the Convention Center.

Venues with flooring that do not require USA Fencing to bear the expense of bringing in
carpet for the strip layout.

For Summer Nationals, Bids must include hosting:
The USA Fencing Board of Directors meeting the Fall (September/October)
prior to the event and The USA Fencing Hall of Fame Reception (100-125
guests) held during the Summer Nationals.

Bids must meet the contract requirements of USA Fencing’s housing service.

Organizational Background:
The Amateur Sports Act of 1978 specifically
named the United States Olympic Committee
(USOC) as the coordinating body for amateur
athletic activity in the US directly relating
to international Olympic athletic competition.
The Act included provisions for recognizing
National Governing Bodies (NGBs) for the
sports on the programs of the Olympic and
Pan American Games.
USA Fencing is the recognized NGB for the sport of fencing in the United States. USA Fencing was
founded in 1891 as the Amateur Fencers League of America (AFLA) by a group of New York fencers
seeking independence from the Amateur Athletic Union. The AFLA changed its name to the United
States Fencing Association in 1981.
USA Fencing is affiliated with the Féderation Internationale d'Escrime (FIE), the international
federation for fencing founded in Paris in 1913.
Our NGB was incorporated as a non-profit corporation in Pennsylvania in 1964 and in
Colorado in 1993 in compliance with the Amateur Sports Act and opened its national
office at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. in August of 1982.
Mission Statement:
The mission of USA Fencing is to develop fencers to achieve international success and to administer
and promote the sport in the USA.
Goals:
