On behalf of the British Fencing Board, I invite you to the Annual General Meeting of British Fencing Association Limited on the 10th October 2020 at 09:30am, where your Board will invite you to receive the accounts for the financial year ending 31 March 2020.

The Board will introduce Pat Aiyenuro and James Williams who join the Board following this AGM as a result of the recent elections.

The Board will seek your approval of its extension of the appointment of Mark Lyttle for a second four year term as Independent Chair of British Fencing.

The Board will also seek your approval of the extension of the appointment of Hilary Philbin as British Fencing’s President to expire at the first Annual General Meeting of British Fencing after the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo.

John Troiano, in his capacity as Chair of the Board’s sub-committee for Audit, Governance & Risk, will take members through the accounts and finances and respond to your questions. The accounts have been published on the BF website here. Questions should be submitted in advance using the registration form here.

The formal notice of the Meeting and resolutions to be proposed are set out here. If you wish to attend the AGM online please complete the registration form here and you will be sent a link and access details nearer the time.

If you would like to vote on the resolutions you must complete the proxy form (attached to the registration form here) appointing the CEO as your proxy to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, vote and speak at the Meeting.

I hope you are able to attend the Annual General Meeting and look forward to your continued involvement in, and enjoyment of, our sport.
