New DBS Check Request

This is the first step in the process to apply for a DBS Check through British Fencing. To make your application, you need to be a member of British Fencing. There will be an administration charge for all applications, and for people in paid roles, DBS charge for the check.

Please enter your British Fencing membership number

Please tell us what club(s) you volunteer or work at or if you are TM what club(s), region(s), or Home Country you are associated with.

It is important that you select whether you are a volunteer or not as this affects how much you pay for your DBS check. This is levied directly by DBS and not by BF.

All Welfare Officers are deemed to be volunteers.

Please confirm that you are either on the Coach Register or are working towards being a registered coach. If you are not on the register we will require proof that you are working towards registration before we proceed with your DBS check. Please do not tick this section unless you are actually on the register, are only missing your DBS check or have sent us proof of having signed up for the required training courses. We manually check your profile and if anything is missing your DBS request will be put on hold until we see proof of working towards the requirements.

If you have selected that you are not currently on the coaching register you will need to provide proof that you are working towards registration before we will undertake a DBS check for you. If you have not yet booked the required training courses please do not apply for your DBS check at this time

You have selected a paid role to be checked against. By continuing with the form as it is you are stating that you understand this and that you will be charged for your DBS check. If this is not correct please go back and look at the role list. i.e Coach is a paid role, Volunteer Coach is a non-paid role. if you select both you will be put through the DBS system for a paid role.
