Welcome warriors! The year of 2010 will bring our Traditional Boffer Tourney back for its 5th season. Think you are the best at single sword fighting? Or perhaps you are the master of sword and shield? Perchance Pole-Arm and Great Sword? Or even, two-weapons at once?

Each day of the Ren Faire we will run one of these styles and the minimum age for participation is sixteen.

Entry in the Tourney is 7$, with the winner in each receiving a weapon from Crossing Swords Smithery, as well as prizes from EndofSeasons.com.

There will also be a 3 on 3 multi-style honor system combat. This exhibition tourney is 20$ for participation per team.

This tourney will be held on June 19th.

Weapons:
Latex weapons are not allowed due to the high degree of variances between makes. Some weapons will be available for use. All participants in any boffer combat must visit the End of Seasons booth to sign the waiver, receive their combat-active wristband, and have their weapons inspected for safety.

If you have further questions, please read our Weapon Construction pdf , or contact us here.
