2022 will be the 75 year anniversary for Welsh Fencing.  We propose to bring together a working group to define how best to celebrate this, and to plan any activities.  If you are interested in being part of this group, plase email Fran (fran.whalley@fencing.cymru).  It would also help it you could include any specific skills you have that you think would benefit the project.

Adrian Stoneman, Cardiff, won this year’s cup, his third win to date, in a very closely fought contest.

Welsh Fencing Interim Guidance for Commonwealth Championships Selection – Cadets, Juniors & Seniors and Request for Expressions of Interest

As a result of COVID, the Board are aware that fencers and the fencing calendar have been severely impacted and may continue to be for a significant period.

Over the next few weeks, we will be moving to a new domain - fencing.cymru - so to get to our website, you should use this new domain name:  https://fencing.cymru. 

For the last few years, we have hosted our website on a shared hosting provider.  We have not been satisfied with the performance, as we are impacted by the other websites sharing the same server.  As we approach the end of that contract, we have established a new domain, and have moved to use AWS Lightsail.  This gives us our own Virtual Private Server, which we have more control over, and which we expect to perform much better.

Our thoughts go out to the family and friends of Colin Hyndman, who passed away in his sleep.

He made a massive impact on Fencing in Wales, and was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award just over a year ago.

The following article describes his presentation, back in November, 2019:
