My Coaching Philosophy
Overall my main intention is to support the development and growth of people in sport, henceforth enabling them to achieve excellence. I support individuals to see beyond the sport, providing opportunities for coaches and fencers to develop not just their fencing skills, but also themselves as a whole. This is achieved by listening to individuals, nurturing and supporting them in order to empower them to achieve their own objectives and outcomes, and/or create social change within their communities.

In order for a coach to show on the register we confirm that they meet *minimum* eligibility standards - in terms of suitable criminal record checks, minimum safeguarding training, and minimum entry level coaching qualifications. For more information on minimum standards please see here.

BF does not currently provide an additional verification process in relation to the other information supplied by coaches which shows above. Coaches can choose to provide as much or as little detail as they wish. However, if you have any concerns in relation to the information a coach is providing on the register you can contact us here.

Coaches are encouraged to work within their qualifications and competencies, and if they don't, they are not insured. For more information click here.

It is a sign of good practice that coaches have updated and recent (last 6 years) British Fencing coaching qualifications and assessments. For more information click here.
