EVENTS

Championship Holmgang: The Shire’s
Premier Event. This will be ran in two 30 min sections with a 10
min break between. 
Rapier Championship
Holmgang: This year we are
pleased to have Rapier in a Holmgang inspired Tourney! From our
Rapier Marshal HL Luaithrenn the Falconer’s Wife: “Rapier
Championship, Hold the Field tourney (Holmgang
Style)
Depending on the
number of entrants, we will have one or two fights going on at a
time.  Any combination of authorized weapons is permitted.
 Fighters do not need to match weapons with their opponent.
 The winning fighter remains on the field to face the next
combatant, while the losing fighter reports the result to the
lists.  Winners are not required to keep wounds from fight to
fight, but may not remain in the eric for longer than 5 fights in a
row.  The tournament will be won by the fighter with the most
wins.  (As the event is an outdoor event, falling down when
dead is at the discretion of the
fighters.)”
