ASG are happy to announce the 3rd Scottish Hema Intramural Longsword Tournament and gathering day.
PLEASE READ THIS FULL POST
This is the 3rd in a series of longsword events designed to help fencers gain more experience in a non-ranked setting, and for newer fencers to experience tournaments and events in a more supportive environment, reducing pressure in the real thing.
The event is open to fencers 18+ who have not placed at an open tournament before, club leadership and instructors are also not to take part as the event is focused on developing newer fencers and give a better chance of seeing them progress further in the event.
The event will be a bit different from the standard tournament, as it is a team event.
Teams of 3 will compete against other teams through pools and eliminations to win! Team will be made up of different levels of fencers to make sure everyone has 'someone in their corner' and have support through the event.
There is currently space for up to 8 teams of 3, however, if there is enough people willing to judge, we may expand this to 12 teams of 3.
