Fencing Ireland is pleased to announce our new Transgender and Non-Binary Inclusion policy. This policy sets out Fencing Ireland’s regulations regarding gender and identity in Irish fencing including competition. Fencing Ireland is committed to fostering a respectful, open, and inclusive environment in Irish fencing without discrimination. We respect and value the diversity both of our members and society and feel that everyone has a place in sport and should be treated with dignity.
Fencing Ireland also recognises the power of sport as a means for integration and finding a community of like-minded individuals and so wish to provide a route for everyone to engage in fencing who wishes to do so.
Any questions or queries on this policy can be addressed to gender@fencingireland.net
