COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — One’s a thrilling weekend in the Home of the Blues, while the other’s an ideal Summer Nationals tuneup under the bright lights of Las Vegas. 

With these two stops, the Super Junior & Cadet Circuit (SJCC) calendar is set — rounding out USA Fencing’s full 2025–26 national tournament slate. This announcement comes just as promised to ensure that fencing families have plenty of time to prepare for our two SJCCs of the season.

What’s an SJCC? The Super Junior & Cadet Circuit is a dedicated, national‑level tournament focused on Junior (U20) and Cadet (U17) athletes. SJCCs are designed to deliver deep competition and valuable experience with full days of Junior and Cadet fencing across all three weapons.

A Note about the January SJCC

As a heads up, as the USA Fencing Events team finalizes negotiations with our colleagues in Memphis, there’s a very small (but greater than zero) possibility that we’d have to move this tournament to a different location. If this happens, we will inform families right away. For this reason, we encourage you to wait to book travel until the day schedule and the hotel link are posted.

What’s Next

  1. SJCC Day Schedules: Day schedules for the January SJCC and June SJCC, along with an announcement of registration timelines for the January SJCC, will be coming soon.
