    Sport Development Officer

    NI Fencing would like to welcome Jess Rutherford to the team, we look forward to working with her over the coming seasons.

    Jess will be working to promote fencing within Northern Ireland.

    Here are a few words from Jess:

    Hi, I’m Jess and I have recently been appointed Sports Development Officer for Northern Ireland Fencing. From a young age I have loved all things sport and I have mainly been involved with sailing and hockey. More recently, sailing is my main sport and I enjoy travelling and competing in events. Last year I placed 3rd in the RS400 Irish Championships. I also have a keen interest in health and fitness. I am a sports student at Ulster University Jordanstown and this is where my experience in sport development began. I’ve had the opportunity to meet fantastic lecturers who are very experienced in their field. I have never tried fencing- but there’s a first time for everything! However, I am very passionate about the benefits of lifelong involvement in sport and I am looking forward to working with the very welcoming NIF team, getting to know everyone in the fencing community and helping to develop this great sport.

  • Important – New Access NI Process

    Please note that there is now a new process for Applying for an Enhanced Disclosure through Access NI in conjunction with our Umbrella Body – The Northern Ireland Sports Forum.

    Details of the procedure can be found on the Safeguarding Documents and Resources Page.  I have also linked the document here for easy access – Access NI Application Process – NI Sports Forum

    All Volunteers and Coaches are required to have an Access NI Check.  If you have previously had a check you will need to renew it as soon as possible.

    As we no longer have umbrella status due to the small number of checks that we conduct it was necessary to partner with another umbrella organisation – the NISF.  However this means that there is a charge for the check as follows;

    Volunteers and Volunteer Coaches – £10

    Paid Coaches – £43

    For further information and to help process an application please contact either David Connolly or Julie Murphy.
