Greetings to all youth fighters and their parents!
BMDL Youth Fighter practice continues this Sunday from 2-5pm at Washington Blvd. The weather is supposed to be partly sunny with a high of only 68 - great fighting weather!
Note that we are learning some new techniques from the adult fighters; in particular, two weeks ago Count Sir Isenwulf demonstrated ways in which youth fighters can throw snaps and wraps without increasing their force levels beyond the required calibration for their divisions. Those techniques will help all our youth fighters become faster and better with single-handed weapons. I recommend that you not only learn and use these techniques on Sundays, but also practice them at home on your nearest unsuspecting tree or telephone pole. Practice makes for muscle memory, which makes for better shots!
UPCOMING YOUTH TOURNEYS
I will be running youth combat tourneys at:
- Archers to the Wald, Canton of Steltonwald, October 13 from 10am - noon. This event also features the Baronial Youth Archery Championship, so come on out and try your luck on the archery range after the fighting is done! Contact the baronial Archery Marshal, Master Alaric MacConall, for loaner bows, and you can attend archery practice before fighter practice at Washington Blvd. from 11-2 each Sunday. The site for Archers to the Wald is an archery club in Beaver County. http://www.steltonwald.org/archers.shtml
- Agincourt, where Their Excellencies will choose their Youth Combat Champion for the coming year. It will be held at the Pitcairn-Monroeville Gun Club on November 3rd. http://aethelmearc.org/eventinfo.php?event=769
In addition, for anyone interested in traveling to the Shire of Sylvan Glen in the eastern panhandle of WV, there will be youth combat at the Siege of Glengary on Sept. 20-21. http://www.sylvanglen.info/siege-of-glengary-2012/
