This week at Crossing Fight School, we will be hosting a Messer and Sword & Buckler Intramural Tournament. These beloved weapon systems don’t get the attention they deserve, so we’re giving them their due.

For those who wish to practice Longsword, there will be ample room on the floor to train, spar, experiment, and carry on as you see fit. We recommend you participate as a competitor or staff member, but the choice is yours.

This Intramural is being held as an event to test the rules in advance of Devil’s Point, scheduled for Saturday, November 8th, at our alternate venue. It promises to be both fun and competitive, and we may wind up with more than a few guests from elsewhere, so it is not to be missed.

See you all on Sunday, and here is the rule set:
