The Fencing AGM will be held in the Pess cafe area from 8-9pm on Tuesday the 26th of November.
Our primary goal is to get the following roles filled
For core committee,
Public Relations Officer: The person responsible for managing our social media, branding and general public image. Your primary duties will be to stay on top of our social media presence. Posting about fencing, interacting with other clubs on our public social media, and being responsible for general publicity of the club. Including doing promotional posts for the club and working on general student engagement for the club. A creative role that offers a lot of chance to shine for the more extroverted among you, as you would get the opportunity to talk to other people interested in the sport.
As for non core,
Armorer: The person responsible for maintaining our equipment. Your primary duties with this role would be taking care of our equipment, making sure that our swords, masks, uniforms and other equipment are in the best shape they could be. Performing repairs on gear that needs it, and bringing it the attention of the committee if gear needs significant repair, or needs to be replaced entirely. As an armorer your role is incredibly important, but also very educational. This role will teach you how to properly maintain fencing gear, a skill that is very relevant if you plan to purchase your own gear in the future. It will also be an invaluable utility, as you would not only be making sure your gear is a decent shape, but also the gear of your fellow fencers. A role for those interested in the maintenance and care of equipment, this role will not only allow you to serve yourself well, but also your fellow fencers.
First Year Rep: The person responsible for keeping an open line of communication between first years and the main committee. Your primary duties would be to keep an open channel of communication between freshmen/first years and the committee. Relaying any concerns, queries and questions they have about the club back to the core committee. A role for those who want help their fellow freshman find their voice, and bring to light any questions, queries or concerns they have regarding the club
Events Officer: A role being revived, going forward the events Officer will be responsible for Organizing, researching and planning trips to tournaments and social events as well as contacting relevant authorities to gain permission for use of relevant facilities for such endeavors and for use in our usual training
If you want to be a part of committee, or even just have your voice heard, stay around for the meeting, there may even be free donuts!

Please read if interested in attending Schull Novice as part of the club. Note we can only send members to do Épée, as we do not have the equipment for Foil or Sabre.
Two club members, will be driving down on Saturday and Sunday morning. That means there are limited spots available to get a lift to Schull. We have a sign up form below, whoever signs up first will get a lift. If there are too many people, some will have to get a bus (which can be subsidized by the club).
If you are going on any of these days, this is what you need to do:
1. BE A MEMBER OF FENCING IRELAND. Membership is free for your first year.
2. FILL OUT THIS INTEREST FORM BY FRIDAY. This is so we know how many members are interested in going
3. COMPLETE THE SCHULL SIGNUP FORM BY MONDAY. You cannot enter the competition if this form is not filled out. Please choose 1 weapon and make sure it is Épée.

As you may be aware, the current Covid-19 wave in India is at crisis level. We are proposing a fundraiser challenge to raise funds and awareness. We are urging all clubs and societies to take part and donate what you can. The cases in India are increasing rapidly on a daily basis. Unfortunately, hospitals are not equipped to deal with the high number of patients. The development of variants of Covid-19 may have a serious effect, both in India and globally. We have decided to run a ‘Tag and Donate’ fundraiser on Instagram in aid of Oxfam via our GoFundMe, 'Irish University Clubs Covid-19 Relief.' Oxfam is providing PPE to frontline health workers and supplying oxygen to those who need it most. To take part:1.Share a picture of a funny/happy memory with your club or society on your Instagram story or page2.Donate to Oxfam via the GoFundMe link (link in Linktree) 3.Use the Hashtag #IrishClubsCovidRelief and challenge three friends by tagging them.

Join us for the Fencing Varsities Charity relay run on the 26th of March. Organised by Dublin University Fencing Club. Lockdown has been very difficult for everyone, and we can't have intervarsity's this year so we'll be donating to a charity supporting mental health!
You can join in anyway, such as running, walking, or cycling. The relay works in teams, where each person has a scheduled time to complete their distance, you don't have to physically meet to pass on the relay, but the next person must start their distance within 15 mins of the last person to pass on the relay.
To make up for the lack of competition that Intervarsity's would normally bring, there will be prizes for things like best distance, time spent moving, or fastest run. There will be more details to follow!
