COMBAT SCENARIOS: This year's Kingdom Rapier Championship will bring Dante’s Inferno to Lyondemere’s rapier field. Fighters will be entered into a round robin: The first round will be single sword, second round sword and buckler, third round sword and baton, fourth round sword and dagger, and fifth round Case. If more rounds are needed, we will start over with single sword, etc. The top two winners of the round robin will enter the semi-finals. The semi-finalists may choose whichever fighting style suits them best, as they have already survived the Inferno.

Cut & Thrust will also be a round robin (not following the Inferno rules).

SITE INFORMATION: Parking will be available onsite. Pavilions and day shades are welcome and may be staked to the ground as necessary. You may drive on the grass to unload: however please take care not to get your vehicle stuck in the grass.
