Important: The Teams events are 4 teams of 4 fencers made from the top fencers from the individual events. Fencers will be asked if they want to participate at time of entry via One Point.  The top 16 fencers in the individual results who agree will be selected. The format will be a Poule Unique with each match up to 27 points.

The 4 teams will be formed along the following principle:

Team Ranked fencers
Team 1 1,8,9,16
Team 2 2,7,10,15
Team 3 3,6,11,14
Team 4 4,5,12,13

If there are less than 16 fencers these numbers will be adjusted utilising the above principle. This will be determined by the DT at the time.
