Collaborating at distance

Mountains Fencing Club is very happy to be the first fencing member of Sport NSW, the peak state body for sport.

Our association with Sport NSW gives us access to a wealth of experience, support and opportunities to enhance the club, as well as giving fencing a new voice at the state level.

With COVID-19 restrictions easing, the sports sector is looking at ways to safely resume training at all levels and Sport NSW is working with the NSW Office of Sport as part of a Sport and Recreation Sector Recovery Working Group.

We welcome our connection with Sport NSW and its members, which comprise a wide variety of sporting organisations, including the chance to be a part of the discussion of priorities, strategies and approaches to recommencing community sport.

Community sport plays a vital role in health and wellbeing and as a grassroots community fencing club it's great to be part of a wider network of local and state sporting organisations who are sharing well considered plans for restarting sports activities.

We're a step closer to being able to get back to fencing!
