Work in Progress

Please note that we are still working on a set of FAQs for the Cadet Zone – currently labelled: (Under Review) Nominated Intnl Comps FAQs

We have also published a series of BF travel guides that can be found in the Quick Links and will be expanded on to cover more venues in the future.

If you have any suggestions with regards to additional information that you would like to access from the Zone pages please let us know via the form here and a member of the ADP team will come back to you.

As we are working through the procedural details of making international competitions happen (in an environment of cancellations, postponements) information is still subject to change.

 

How do I find X?

There are normally a number of ways to find a piece of information on the website. There will usually be at least 2 routes through the menu structure and we also encourage the use of the Search Bar.

For example Selection policies

1. Search Bar Use the search bar to search ‘Selection’ and select the relevant result
2. Vertical Side Bar Menu Route 1. From here you can go to About Us, Policy Zone and select Selection Policies
3. Vertical Side Bar Menu Route 2 . Go to your GBR Zone page – eg GBR Fencing, GBR Cadet and click on the box ‘Selection Policies & Procedures’ or scroll down to the quick links where there is a link in the blue GBR Policies.

 

A similar approach to Calendars

1. Search Bar Use the search bar to search ‘Calendar’ and select the relevant result page
2. Vertical Side Bar Menu Route 1. From here you can go to GBR Fencing, GBR Calendar
3. Vertical Side Bar Menu Route 2 . Go to your GBR Zone page – eg GBR Fencing, GBR Junior scroll down to the quick links section where there is a Calendar link in the red Quick Links box (2^nd item).

 

Relevant latest news posts will also be available at the bottom of the Zone Pages. If something changes we will do our best to get a news post out first and then follow that with updating the relevant website pages. To keep up to date with the news we recommend that you subscribe to our weekly summary email, The Fencing Digest, featuring the previous week’s latest news and announcements. Sign up here.
