Rugby and Daventry Fencing Club aims to ensure the safety, enjoyment, and fair play by promoting the sport of fencing and the wellbeing of all its members. The club believes that it is important that members and fencers, coaches, administrators, and parents associated with the club should, at all times, show respect and understanding for the safety and welfare of others. We encourage all members to support each other and to share any concerns or complaints that they may have about any aspect of the club with the club secretary or welfare officers.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Encourage their fencer to learn the rules and play within them
\n\u2022 Help their fencer to recognise good performance, not just results.
\n\u2022 Collect their fencer from the sports venue unless a signed consent form allows the fencer to make their own way home.
\n\u2022 Accept coaches and committee rules during coaching sessions and competition.
\n\u2022 Always use correct and proper language.
\n\u2022 Not do anything which is likely to intimidate, offend, insult, humiliate or discriminate against any other person during training or competitions on the ground of their sexuality, religion, race, colour or national or ethnic origin.
\n\u2022 Encourage and guide fencers to accept responsibility for their own performance and behaviour.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Hold appropriate valid qualifications and insurance cover.
\n\u2022 Prioritise the wellbeing and safety of participants before the development of performance.
\n\u2022 Develop an appropriate working relationship with participants, based on mutual trust and respect.

Those whose behaviour disrupts the lesson so much that the other fencers are unable to learn properly or who are unsafe will, in the first instance, be asked to sit out for a short period. If poor or unsafe behaviour continues the fencer will not be allowed to continue lessons
