additional info...Championships of Bryn Gwlad held at their mighty holdings in Castleton 23-25 September, 2011
It has been said by Our Cousins Bjornsborg that balmy France is the best place in Creation, excepting only Fair Ansteorra. We, of course, are inclined to favor the great Isle of Albion. We propose a contest: all and sundry are invited to celebrate and vie for wealth and fame under Our Arms and the arms of either the Lion or the Fleur de Lys to resolve this fine point. ~ TE Phelim and Myfanwy
v Lend wise and violent council on the issue of England vs. France. Declare your deeds for one or the other.
v Take share in the bounty of Bryn Gwlad: prizes include an arming pavilion, poniards, armor, games, spices, scrolls, fletching, leather stuffs, silks, wasters, shields, bucklers, sword hangers, rare woods, sweets, precious stones, camp furniture, beads, perfumes, soaps, tools, and custom commissioned works for shoes, belts, and clothing. Oak and iron coffers groan at the weight of Our generosity. We encourage you to bring an extra cart and horse.
v 13 tourneys! : Cut & Thrust, target archery, a Barrier, melees, fencing, the Arts, & more
v Prize and Championship tournaments on Sunday morning
v Their Excellencies, in honor of Their Cousins Bjornsborg, have commissioned a play for the populace at 8 of the clock on Saturday.
On being Our Champions:
v We require your presence in Our court. To be named a champion of *any* of the tournaments, you must be present at Sunday’s court. We would present accolades and prizes upon those in each tournament in person as a sign of their service.
v Those who win one of the Chivalric tournaments on Friday or Saturday are allowed to enter the Chivalric Champion Tournament on Sunday morning.
v Those who win one of the Rapier tournaments they are allowed to enter the Rapier Champion Tournament on Sunday morning.
v If a winner of one of Our earlier tournaments is unable to enter the Champion Tournament, they are allowed to name a second to take their place.
v If someone wins more than one of Our earlier tournaments, they are allowed to name a second to take their place for a Champion Tournament on Sunday morning.
v As a matter of Grace and Goodwill, We give our Cousins Philippe and Suzanne, Bjornsborg, the right to name someone to enter either of the Champion Tournaments at Their pleasure.
v Those who win one of the non-Champion tournaments- A&S, Cut & Thrust, or Archery- may name someone to enter one of the Champion Tournaments if they so choose.
v Our current champions will not be the incoming champion, but they may name someone to enter their respective tournament to showcase.
v If at this time we do not have 8 entrants per tournament, we will allow those present to name an entrant to either of the tournaments still needing one. It is Our intent to have this based on precedence of those present. If you arrive after your precedence was skipped over, your choice is forfeit to Their Majesties and Highnesses desires.
v Once the list is completed to 8, we will then have a single elimination single bout tournament.
