Ever wondered what it'd be like to swing a sword on the medieval battlefield? Now's your chance to find out. Come along and learn from our training team how to fight like a knight of the 12th century.
Sessions are held weekly from 13:00-16:00 on Clarence Ground next to Pembroke Gardens Bowling Club and are absolutely free to attend. All you need to bring with you is a bottle of water, some sturdy footwear and some gardening gloves or similar if you have them (if not we can provide them for you) and some comfy clothes you don't mind potentially getting a bid muddy.
16 and up can come along by themselves, under 16's will need a parent or guardian to attend with them who will need to read-through and sign a junior member form in order for them to take part. 10-12 is really the youngest who can attend for safety but this can be discussed on a case by case basis and we will make every effort to include anyone who wishes to participate.
If you have any questions about attending please feel free to reach out to one of us via the messaging option on the page. Thank you
