Greetings Ealdormere!
As activities and gatherings continue around the Kingdom, We are so very very hopeful that the precautions being taken by the Province will continue to allow us to gather as we have been this past month so Our Crown Tournament might continue as planned on October 30!
As announced in Our September letter, We have reopened the call for applications with a deadline of 11:59 pm Friday, October 1, 2021 which is now just under a week away. If you are interested in submitting, please send your letter of intent and required paperwork to Us and Kingdom Seneschal Xristina by email in advance of the deadline. Should you have any questions regarding requirements, please contact Us.
We are looking forward to seeing the Kingdom’s honourable combatants, inspirited by their consorts, take the field in chivalrous combat. We have been too long without Heirs!

The Tournament format will be as follows:
The initial tournament will be a Double elimination with initial random draw onto the tree, each round being best 2 of 3. Weapon forms do not need to be matched during the initial rounds.
For the semi finals and finals, matches will be matched weapon forms chosen from the following list: Weapon and Shield, Pole arm, Two Weapon, Great Sword, Single Sword, and 6 foot spear. A shield or buckler may be used in the weapon and shield fight. Two weapons can be either 2 sword or a combination of two weapons. Any weapon with a butt spike must have a minimum length of 48". Great weapons including Pole Arms, Great Axes Great Swords, and Spears will be maximum of 6 feet. Weapon forms cannot be repeated. One of the six forms will not be used
The semi finals will be matches of best 3 of 5 weapons forms. Each weapons form will be best 2 of 3 fights. In order to move onto the finals the fighter from the no loss side must win 1 match of 3 out of 5 weapons forms or the fighter from the 1 loss side must win 2 matches of 3 out of 5 weapons forms. All fights will be matched weapon form throughout with the fighter coming from the no loss side getting 1st, 3rd, and 5th weapons selections and the combatant from the one loss side will choose the 2nd and 4th weapon form. During the semi finals every effort will be made to ensure combatants do not fight someone they have met in the previous round. If this is not possible the pairings will be done randomly.
