The British Fencing Community Awards recognise the hard work and commitment of clubs, coaches, fencers and volunteers for their contribution to fencing. An independent panel selected the shortlisted nominees and winners.

British Fencing gives 6 awards out in different categories each year nationally and Nigel has been crowned Community Coach of the Year.

Panel comments:

“Nigel has worked at all levels but especially the SEN groups and enabled two fencing clubs he is involved with to flourish. He embodies a culture of caring and inclusivity which are the imprint of his work.”

Congratulations Nigel! ðŸĪš
