Event Coaching Policies:
1 / Coaching and Fees
When coaching is available, it is obligatory to all our athletes. Coaching Fees vary depending on the event.
2 / Coaching Team
We have a team of coaches available for our athletes from both Rogue Fencing and The Phoenix Center. Athletes will be coached by any of our staff
3 / On Strip Interactions
Athletes are expected to maintain their composure on the strip. If an athlete waives a coach off, you are still responsible for coaching fees
4 / Coaching Time
We will do our best to make sure each athlete gets the attention they need at an event, however there will be times that coaches need to make a choice on who they are with (DEs vs Pools, Struggling Athlete, vs Winning Athlete, etc). Athletes and their families must respect that choice and know that we are invested in everyone’s success
5 / Equipment Maintenance
Equipment is the athlete’s responsibility. Please make sure that you have proper equipment in good order when attending an event
