The Commonwealth Fencing Championships 2022 is scheduled to take place in August 2022 in London. This will be a huge tournament - combining the Open, Veteran and Junior and Cadet Commonwealth Championships.
Given the travel restrictions in place due to the COVID19 pandemic, the Oceania Fencing Confederation have made the decision to cancel the 2021 Oceania Championships. Fencing NZ will make a decision regarding the New Zealand Championships, which are scheduled to take place at Labour weekend (23rd to 25th October), on the 28th September.
National competitions will only be held if the host region is in Level 1.

As you will be aware, due to closed borders, the Oceania Junior (U20) tournament scheduled in Auckland in September will instead be the NEW ZEALAND Junior (U20) Championship.
Due to the reduction in expected entries, the tournament, originally scheduled for 3 days (10th to 12th September) will now be condensed to 2 days only (Saturday and Sunday - 11th and 12th September).
The Oceanic Fencing Confederation has advised that, due to many countries being unable to send teams to compete, the Oceanic Junior (U-20) Championships planned for September 10th – 12th in Auckland this year has been cancelled.
The tournament will instead be the New Zealand Junior (U-20) Fencing Championships on the same dates, and the Oceanic Teams Competition will be replaced by a NZ National Regional Teams competition..
Why does Fencing New Zealand need a privacy officer?
As well as being required by law, having a privacy officer is useful for FeNZ.
Good privacy builds trust with members and other stake holders and enhances FeNZ reputation. The internal privacy adviser who is familiar with the business and privacy law adds value to FeNZ.
