Clarification was reached at the recent FV Executive to state that conductive Foil Bibs will NOT be required for Fencing Victoria comeptitions for 2010 but will be required from 2011.
This notification is separate from any requirement that the AFF may make regarding AFF competitions. At this time, the AFF has made NO announcement as to the commencement of the requirement to use conductive foil bibs, however the FV Executive has determined to add some clarity for its members.
In a related discussion, FV have also restated the position of adopting FIE rules in relation to saftey equipment. Hence the recent FIE ban of Visor masks for Foil and Epee is in effect for all FV competitions also.
