Activities will take place in this order:
Testing Time
Authorizations & Inspections will start as soon as we have appropriate folks to conduct them. Hopefully we’ll get some done before court.
Triad Theory
During authorizations, a TBD instructor will work with the non-authorization folks to teach some basic 3v3 tactics.
Triad Trouble
A quick and dirty single elimination melee tournament of 3-person teams. Each fighter in a triad must use a weapon different from their two teammates. Please try to spread out the scarves and collars so that teams are reasonably even in skill.
Triple Elim Progressive Form Tournament
Every participant will start being allowed to fight with only a single rapier. Upon their first loss, the fighter may add a defensive secondary. Upon two losses, a fighter may use an offensive secondary. Upon three losses, the fighter is eliminated.
Thrust and Cut tournament
A round robin tournament using C&T rules. More than one round may be fought depending on the number of fighters.
Training Time
The field will be open for sparing and training if time and energy remain.
