My Coaching Philosophy
Fencing can be for all ages and needs to be fun. Fencing for social reasons is as just important as for competition, perhaps more so especially for the young and for the older ones. Keen to work with the fencer to suit their own abilities and intentions. I have been a member of the British Academy of Fencing since 2005. In my day job I am a Chartered Electrical Engineer and a member of the Institute of Engineering and Technology.

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.
