| England Fencing is proud to be associated with Clubmark ; a cross-sport quality accreditation for clubs with junior sections. |
 |
Clubmark was introduced in 2002 by Sport England to:
- Ensure that accrediting partners apply core common criteria to ensure that consistent good practice and minimum operating standards are delivered through all club development and accreditation schemes.
- Enable parent(s)/carer(s) to make informed decisions when choosing a club for their children.
- Ensure that Clubmark accredited clubs are recognised through a common approach to branding.
- Provide a focus around which all organisations involved in sport can come together to support good practice in sports clubs working with children and young people.
Clubmark now has its own website
Clubmark accreditation is awarded to clubs that comply with minimum operating standards in four areas:
Clubs working towards accreditation can receive support and advice from England Fencing and other partners such as county sports partnerships (CSPs).
Circumstances will vary between clubs and sports but the process of accreditation is the same. There is only one set of paperwork to complete and in general most clubs are well on the way to achieving accreditation without realising it.
The following fencing clubs have been accredited with Clubmark:
Foiled Again (Mackworth, Derbyshire)
Salle Kiss (Bury, Greater Manchester)
Mallard (Herne Bay, Kent)
Touche Fencing Club (Towcester, Northamptonshire)
Bath Sword Club (Somerset)
Salisbury Fencing Club (Wiltshire)
Salle Eton (Berkshire)
Redditch Youth (Worcestershire)
Salle Ursa (Warwick)
