We are a cosy fencing club in Utrecht with around 145 members (youth and adults). We fence several evenings a week. We also organise, among others, the Dom tournament and the Slot Zuylento tournament. We fence on all three weapons, mainly recreationally. Our ambition is to increase the general level of fencing and to make members more enthusiastic about competitive fencing. We are therefore immediately looking for a maître or fencing instructor KSS level 3.
What are we looking for?
a maître or a fencing teacher KSS level 3, for 3 to 6 hours per week, who:
is available one or two evenings a week, including at least Wednesday, to teach both group and individual lessons
can teach foil and epee lessons (if you can also teach sabre, that would be an advantage)
is willing to take on the role of head coach
has the organisational skills to set up a lesson programme
is in possession of a first-aid certificate or is willing to obtain one in the short term
is eligible for a VOG
is additionally insured as a coach through membership of NLCoach or a similar scheme
is able to teach (partly) in English
What we offer
an appointment as volunteer or self-employed person
in the case of appointment as a volunteer, we offer the maximum legally permissible volunteer remuneration, including materials and travel expenses
in the case of self-employment, the remuneration is determined in mutual consultation
in case of growth of the association, extension of the number of hours is possible
If you are interested please send an e-mail to the president of our association: MAIL.
It is possible to join lessons for an evening first, so we can see if there is a mutual click.
