The main reasons for reviewing the regions are:

• Clearing up ambiguity over who can represent which region and which regions cover which areas
• Having a structure that can be communicated effectively to external partners such as Sport England, the Youth Sport Trust and County Sport Partnerships
• Ensuring that Regions are properly constituted and best placed to represent the interests of fencing at a local level

England Fencing has been following a consultation process since September with the regional committees to identify the main areas that need addressing and to explore the options. This involved a survey of regional committees, discussions at the England Fencing AGM and discussions within the England Fencing Board.

The ideas generated from the consultation so far have culminated in the production of three proposals that are now open for all in the fencing community to comment on.

Your views on these proposals are very important if the board is to take a final decision on how the regions should be developed. Please use the fencing forum to discuss the proposals and I will do my best to answer any questions and explain how each proposal would affect any scenarios you may like to suggest.You can also email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Most importantly I would be very grateful if, once you have read through and understood what is being proposed, you could contribute your thoughts by completing the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/fencingregions

An estimated schedule of events with start times and piste numbers is also attached - but please treat this with care - it is indicative only, and subject to change on the day. We love it when a plan comes together, but there are lots of things that can mess up the schedule - many of which are beyond the organisers control!

On behalf of England Fencing, and the organising team - have a great time!
