The majority of selection queries are from parents who don't understand why their child has not been selected. Most often their child has not made the performance standard for automatic selection and they want to discus the details of discretionary selection. Responding to these emails are taking a considerable amount of paid staff and volunteer time (which, if it continues) will result in additional administrative charges.


BF will only respond to queries where there is an informed basis for a discussion as follows:

Please confirm the athlete has a recently submitted Individual Athlete Development Plan which clearly shows how attending this event is a material aspect of their performance plan for the season/cycle.

Please put a link to the GBR selection policy that your query relates to and let us know which section of the policy you are looking at. If you are wanting to discuss discretionary selection please confirm that you have read this: https://www.britishfencing.com/gbr-fencing/discretionary-selection/

Referring to (your/your child's) BF published performance data please identify the results that you think indicate that you/your child is performing at a level particularly at international competition that warrants the discretionary selection - cross referencing with the IADP.

Prior to raising a query, please ensure that you have discussed the situation with your/your child's fencing coach and reviewed with them the IADP. We may contact the coach directly to discuss the situation.

Please type your question/s here, and a member of the GBR Pathway team will be in touch.
